- Domestic, family and sexual violence is pervasively gendered and predominately perpetrated by men against women and children.
- The use of violence is a choice and people need to be held responsible and accountable for their choices.
- We acknowledge and respect intersectionality and equity as identity is shaped by multiple factors that create individual experiences of disadvantage.
- First Nations people know best what their communities need and want. We recognise self-determination, the impact of cultural load and we contribute to the Closing the Gap targets.
