Family and domestic violence prevention. It’s up to us all.
Family and domestic violence prevention requires a whole of community approach to prevent violence before it occurs. To do this we need to change the behaviours and attitudes that cause inequality in our community across key areas such as education, economic participation, health and political empowerment.
Spread awareness and understanding about what a healthy relationship is
As Just Cause intends, there is a need to educate the community about healthy relationships, we need to talk about each aspect of the equality wheel and practice these behaviours and shift attitudes.
If each one of us plays our part, this will maximise community engagement across all generations. We will reach a stage where social norms around respect are strengthened, individuals become accountable, and violence is deemed unacceptable.
We will have a world with more kindness, equality, respect, justice and humanity..
Join our ambassadors and role model the type of world you want to live in
By inviting ambassadors to be part of our campaign we are asking role models to share what they would like more of in the world, to remind us of what we deserve in our relationships.
These personal expressions of kindness, respect, justice, and equality will spark conversations that resonate and are shared further, they will evoke thought and inspire change. We must also commit to calling out abusive behaviour, every conversation will be an act of FDV prevention.
Partner with leaders in family and domestic violence prevention
Patricia Giles Centre for Non Violence invites individuals and organisations to partner with our solution focused approach as leaders in the prevention of family and domestic violence.
Together we will affect real and impactful change at a time where demand for our services is unprecedented and the topic is tragically in the spotlight.
