Ahead of the Federal Budget, I’m hoping that prevention and response to #DFV receives the funding attention it needs and that we as a sector don’t have to advocate that the money goes to frontline services and decisions be informed by best practice not just election comms plans.

Did you know ... over 70% of low-income private rental households in the ACT are experiencing rental stress? This is the highest rate in Australia and is placing pressure on our specialist homelessness services.

What an honor to be at the #SistersinSpirit Aboriginal Corporation launch this morning. Magistrate Louise Taylor was unifying and precise in her call to action. I am grateful for the leadership of strong Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women. What a morning!

Grateful to spend time out at Boomanulla Oval today with @DVCSACT for #NAIDOCWeek2021 always great to catch up with friends and meet new people. Our new badge maker was a hit and certainly took me back to my days as a youth worker.

Romano Gaspardis has volunteered to first grow his hair and then to have it shaved in support of ending domestic violence. In Australia, women are nearly 3 times more likely to experience partner violence than men. Donate and support @DVCSACT. bit.ly/3pP5rBD
