About the event:

This Summit is part of the For-Purpose Leadership Series

This Summit will bring together leaders, practitioners, policymakers, researchers and community voices from across Australia. This national gathering will provide space for a collective conversation on the pressing issues shaping child and family safety, including domestic violence, coercive control, child protection, and community wellbeing.

Across Australia, critical work is already underway — in family and domestic violence services, child protection, community legal services, housing and homelessness, justice, health, education, and First Nations’ community-controlled sectors. The Summit is an opportunity to listen across systems, delve into on what is working, and explore how regulation, quality and safeguarding standards, workforce capability can support more coordinated and effective responses to keep families safe.

Through six panel conversations, participants will explore the themes of policy and law reform, coercive control, intersectionality, prevention, collaboration and recovery. Together, these discussions will help shape a collective voice and shared understanding of how governments, services, and communities can align efforts to build a safer future for every child and family in Australia.
