Supporting diversity and inclusion

The Domestic, Family and Sexual Violence Commission (DFSV Commission) recognises lived experience, culture, disability, gender, sexuality, age and circumstance can contribute to the way people experience violence. The people and communities affected by violence are diverse, and our agency must reflect and respect diversity in all we do.

The DFSV Commission places value on the unique insights diverse perspectives bring, as they provide a holistic view of people and community need. Diverse perspective enables us to strengthen our understanding, inform better decision making and ensure the ability for making positive impact to people and community. 

The DFSV Commission is committed to an inclusive, trauma-informed and culturally respectful workplace where every person feels safe and able to contribute. This commitment fosters empowered staff who deliver higher quality work and better outcomes for the people and communities we serve. 

The DFSV Commission actively seeks and elevates the voices of First Nations peoples, people with lived experience and communities who have been marginalised or underserved, their guidance on our work helps ensure meaningful, lasting change for the people and communities who need it most.

Maintaining a safe, inclusive environment for diversity and recognising its influence on all aspects of the DFSV Commission’s objectives, makes us stronger as an agency, more accountable and better equipped to build a future where people can live free from violence.
