Promote the Victims Support Agency a primary source of assistance for male victims

As part of our approach, the Department of Justice and Regulation will undertake the following activities:

• identifying current information channels and relevant campaigns already underway, including other opportunities within broader family violence reforms
• engaging and consulting with stakeholders to develop messaging and support options
• identifying and assessing appropriate media channels and resources
• designing campaign resources

The online resources that have been developed include:

• types of relationships in which family violence occurs
• types of family violence
• impacts of family violence on the individual
• reporting family violence to police
• developing a safety plan
• improving online safety

These resources are available on the Victims of Crime website.

Consultation will continue as part of a broader development of the Victims of Crime website to develop additional online resources and improve our approach to publicising and promoting the Helpline to male victims of family violence.

The investment in the 2017-18 Budget supported the implementation of this recommendation.

Implemented.
