Safe and Secure Practice GuideThe Eastern Metropolitan Regional Family Violence Partnership (EMR RFVP) identified, commissioned and funded the development of a trauma informed practice guide for understanding and responding to children and young people affected by family violence.
The Guide is the culmination of more than six years of work led by the EMR RFVP to focus on the impacts of family violence on children. Partnership member, the Australian Childhood Foundation was commissioned to produce the guide. The guide and training is designed for any frontline worker who comes into contact with children experiencing family violence.
