About the opportunity

The Integrated Family Violence Program (IFVP) provides a case management and support service to women and children who have experienced family violence, prioritising the safety of women and children at all times. The work is cutting edge and innovative, working with culturally diverse communities across the Hume-Moreland catchment and engaging with policy, research and practice developments across the family violence sector.

The Program is strongly integrated with Hume Moreland Child FIRST/Integrated Family Services, and works closely with the Courts, Police, Family Violence Services and other Community Organisations to address the risk, safety and support needs of women and children experiencing Family Violence.
