While Domestic Violence is a complicated issue,
there are some easy actions we all can take that could make a difference. We encourage you to share these tips with your friends and family.
1. Report it if you see or hear something of concern - you might save someone’s life.
2. Call out disrespectful, racist or sexist behaviour. Don’t laugh, tell them it’s not ok, or walk away.
3. Be there for someone if you think they are affected by family violence. Just telling them they have your support and knowing someone cares might get them through that day.
