Are you safe

at home?

We all have a right to feel safe and protected at home.

We acknowledge the Traditional Owners and Custodians of the land on which we work and we pay our respects to their Elders, past, present and emerging. We acknowledge that the sovereignty of this land was never ceded and we are committed to honouring Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in our work.

The ‘Are you safe at home?’ resources aim to raise awareness about the signs of family violence and where to get help, and includes advice for friends and family who may know someone who is experiencing family violence.

These resources include printed cards distributed through essential services in Victoria and a standalone website with help and advice.

You can help by sharing these resources with your networks.
