As a Board, we work closely with the CEO to provide strong governance and oversight, ensuring the organisation remains focused on its strategic direction and community responsibilities. We play an active role in advocating for sustainable funding, improved services, and stronger measures that reduce harm and prevent violence. Our commitment is grounded in the belief that safe, healthy families and communities are essential, and that meaningful change comes through collaboration, accountability, and a deep respect for those we serve. Together, we remain dedicated to supporting healing, promoting safety, and working towards a future free from violence for our communities.
