Our vision is a world free from violence and abuse.
DVCS is a non-government, not-for-profit organisation committed to providing specialist domestic and family violence services to anyone in the ACT region. As a specialist domestic and family violence service we draw on evidence and research to best inform our services delivery. One that brings people - and safety - closer together.
We are here to support people, both during and after crisis situations. We work to prevent and respond to violence and abuse, building safer futures for adults, children and young people impacted by domestic and family violence.
Our principles shape the way our services are created and operate, one that is client-focused, client-directed and child-centered. At the heart of these principles is the safety of the individuals we exist to support.
Our strategic aims are at the forefront of our work and are developed to inform the what, how and who we collaborate with to deliver on our vision of a world free from violence and abuse. This plan provides the framework we need to continue addressing violence while collaborating with community partners and utilizing our experience to enhance prevention efforts.
