1 in 4 women has experienced physical or sexual violence by their partner, boyfriend or date – frontline workers working with women are in a unique position to make a difference...

The rate of violence against women in Australia is unacceptable. But with the support of key community leaders like you we can help to increase the safety and support of women and children experiencing the impacts of sexual assault, domestic and family violence.

This November, in partnership with the Federal Government, 1800RESPECT will launch a national campaign to educate frontline workers about the important role they can play. Anyone that works with women - teachers, GPs, nurses, police, counsellors, emergency services, local government or community health workers and many others - can make a difference by learning how to recognise the signs and respond.

We need the help of peak bodies and organisations throughout Australia to reach the thousands of workers who can make a difference to the lives of millions of women needing to reach out.

Join us for a live webcast to find out about the new 1800RESPECT online toolkit for frontline workers and discover how to implement our 16 Days of Action campaign throughout your organisation.

A live Q&A Session will also be held. This will be a great opportunity to contribute ideas and ask how you and your organisation can get involved.

Please see below for important event information. Together, we can make a difference.
