Framing the Future
Framing the Future, the second three-year rolling action plan under Building from strength: 10-Year Industry Plan for Family Violence Prevention and Response is now available. Framing the Future supports the implementation of our overarching strategy for the reform, Ending Family Violence: Victoria’s 10-year plan for change,

Framing the Future continues to develop the specialisation of the family violence, primary prevention and sexual assault workforces through providing clearer education and training pathways, improving support for early career workers, creating more varied specialisation pathways as workers progress in their careers and improving options for experienced practitioners to move between service types. 

The plan reflects strong collaboration with family violence and sexual assault peak bodies and employers as well as opportunities to connect shared workforce development opportunities and challenges across community services. This includes children and families, disability and housing and homelessness. 

Framing the Future includes actions that apply to all parts of the specialist family violence and sexual assault workforce. Work under this plan will be delivered to meet the needs of different workforces in primary prevention, victim survivor response services and perpetrator services. 

It covers four focus areas: 

  • growing the workforce 
  • supporting strong organisations and workforce culture
  • building capability
  • building a system that works together.
