What DV-alert is

Domestic and Family Violence Response Training is designed to build capacity in frontline workers within universal services for whom family violence is not a core function of their role. Learn how to:

• recognise the signs of domestic and family violence

• respond with appropriate care

• refer effectively to support services.

The myth that domestic and family violence is a private matter enables it to occur.

All DV-alert training is free and funds are available to assist with travel to and access DV-alert programs - see www.dvalert.org.au for information.
