We acknowledge the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples of Australia as the traditional owners of the lands we live and work on.

We pay our respects to Elders past and present who continue to hold and carry deep connections to Country, culture, community and story. Sovereignty has never ceded.

Feedback & complaints

Your feedback is important to us. Feedback on any aspect of DVCS provides us with valuable information about how we can improve our practice and the services we provide, and ensure that the way we operate meets the needs of the people who use our services. All feedback will be treated with respect and actioned promptly.

If you want an informal chat, you can speak with your DVCS employee. You can also ask to speak to a Team Leader or Manager who will listen to your feedback and take any necessary actions.

You can provide feedback by:

What are my rights?

  • To be treated with respect, dignity and compassion
  • To have your privacy protected
  • To make a complaint about any aspect of the service you receive from us

If you feel any of your rights have not been upheld, you have the right to make a complaint. This can be done directly with us as the service involved, or through the ACT Human Rights Commission.

Make a complaint

You have the right to make a complaint about any aspect of the service or the support you receive from us. DVCS welcomes and recognises complaints as an opportunity to reassess the ways we operate and ensure the service is meeting the needs of the people we serve. Making a complaint will not disadvantage you in any way.

Anyone can make a complaint. You do not have to be an ongoing client from us to make a complaint. You may make a complaint on behalf of someone else if you have their permission to do so.

In all complaints matters you have a right to have an advocate, support person, or interpreter to assist you through the process.

You can make a complaint by:

What information should I include with my complaint?

  • Your name (you may provide an anonymous complaint, but this can make it difficult for us to investigate specific issues)
  • The best way to contact you (telephone, email, or mail), and if it is safe to contact you
  • What happened, when, and who was involved
  • What you are concerned about
  • What you would like to happen
