WAVES Family Violence Network

WAVES Trust is a family violence network organisation providing over 50 NGO and government agencies with networking and collaboration opportunities.

Why have a family violence network? 

Familt violence networks are a part of international good practice in responding to family violence. Networks function to bring the community and the family violence sector into conversation, promoting inter-agency communication, collaboration, and information-sharing and strengthening cross-agency, cross-sector referral pathways.
