Vision & Values

Vision

Our vision is to reduce the impact of sexual and family violence through client-focused, trauma-informed care and advocacy.

Values

Our values guide everything we do – from the care we provide to the way we support our clients, colleagues and our community.

Compassion

We meet every person with empathy and kindness, recognising the strength it takes to seek support. Compassion shapes our trauma and violence informed care and underpins how we support, educate, and advocate for survivors.

Safety

We are committed to creating safe and welcoming spaces where every person feels respected, valued, and protected. Our approach is grounded in trust and empowerment, ensuring that individuals can engage with confidence and dignity. We uphold inclusive practices that recognise and honour the unique needs and experiences of each person, fostering an environment free from harm, discrimination, and judgement. .

Respect

We honour the dignity, autonomy, and lived experiences of every person. Respect guides our inclusive practice, recognising the complexity of individual identities and the importance of intersectionality. We value all voices and strive to create environments where everyone feels seen, heard, and respected.

Collaboration

We work across teams, sectors, and communities to provide holistic care and drive meaningful change. Innovation and strong community partnerships are central to our model and coordinated support. Together, we create responsive, evolving solutions through advocacy that meet the needs of those we support.

Hope

We believe in positive change. Hope fuels our advocacy, education, and prevention efforts, and underpins our commitment to walk alongside survivors as they move toward safety and connection. Through this journey, we help new possibilities emerge – grounded in dignity, strength, and a vision for a safer future.
