Family violence workforce wellbeing case studies

Against a backdrop of change, the team at WIRE found a way to elevate the voices of their team and make sure they were heard.

Helping men to unpack their use of violent, controlling and harmful behaviours is challenging and complex work. For the team at Meli, a one-size-fits-all approach to team wellbeing wasn’t an option.

This female-dominated workforce knew that more needed to be done to promote and recognise individual achievements. With a positive workplace culture, they established a resource to spotlight their individual successes, and recognise its impact.

It’s bingo, but not as we know it. The team at The Orange Door chose to focus on the health of staff as a way to address wellbeing. So, they introduced a bingo card.

Using evidence from the PERMAH Wellbeing Survey, the Winda-Mara Aboriginal Corporation developed a tool to recognise 5 key areas of wellbeing to help address overwhelm.

Not everyone agrees on the definition of wellbeing. Everyone at Junction Support Services does agree that wellbeing practices need to be prioritised, regular and practical.

Sometimes the journey is as important as the destination. That was a key learning for this small team. They created a series of cards that capture emotions, recognise struggles and strengths.

Finding the help you need within a team can be difficult at times. Kids First used an interactive tool to improve relationships and collaboration.
