Family Safety Victoria

Family Safety Victoria implements key recommendations from the Royal Commission into Family Violence.

Family Safety Victoria (FSV) was created on 1 July 2017 to drive key elements of Victoria’s family violence strategy and coordinate support for families to help them care for children and young people.

Family Safety Victoria works to:

  • implement key recommendations from the Royal Commission into Family Violence

  • make it easier for people to get the help they need

  • ensure people with lived experience and people with specialist expertise inform and guide the reform

  • bring organisations together to create new and coordinated ways to respond to family violence, and better support families

The family violence system we are building is inclusive, culturally safe and gives children and young people a voice.

We are united by a common goal: to keep women, children, young people and families safe.
