Acknowledgements
Aboriginal acknowledgement
The Victorian Government acknowledges Victorian Aboriginal people as the First Peoples and Traditional Owners and Custodians of the land and water on which we rely. We acknowledge and respect that Aboriginal communities are steeped in traditions and customs built on a disciplined social and cultural order that has sustained 60,000 years of existence. We acknowledge the significant disruptions to social and cultural order, and the ongoing hurt caused by colonisation.
We acknowledge the ongoing leadership role of Aboriginal communities in addressing and preventing family violence. We will continue to work in collaboration with First Peoples to eliminate family violence from all communities.
Recognition of victim survivors
The Victorian Government acknowledges victim survivors. We honour their resistance and resilience. We keep at the forefront in our minds all those who have experienced family violence or other forms of abuse, and for whom we undertake this work.
Family violence support
If you have experienced violence or sexual assault and require immediate assistance, call Triple Zero (000) and ask for police. For ongoing assistance, contact 1800 RESPECT (1800 737 732) to talk to a counsellor from the National Sexual Assault and Domestic Violence hotline. For confidential crisis support, information, and accommodation, contact the Safe Steps 24/7 family violence response line on 1800 015 188. If you are concerned for your safety or that of someone else, please contact the police in your state or territory, or call Triple Zero (000) for emergency assistance.
