The PSA is progressing a critical campaign to address systemic failures in domestic and family violence (DFV) response across regional NSW. Regional Organiser Belinda Pearce, Senior Organiser Belinda Tsirekas and Organiser Nadia Graham will be visiting you.
The “DV Needs Public Services” campaign is calling for a coordinated, publicly delivered system that ensures consistent, accountable, and effective support for victim-survivors, replacing the current fragmented approach.
To strengthen this work, we are inviting all members from Child Protection and Permanency to attend a member meeting to discuss the campaign, share insights from the workplace, and identify actions we can take together.
Agenda
- Provide an overview of the PSA DV campaign and its objectives
- Discuss key issues affecting members working in DFV and related services
- Gather member feedback to inform campaign strategy and advocacy
- Identify opportunities for member involvement, mobilisation and local action
- This campaign is about positioning domestic and family violence response as a core public service responsibility, ensuring the system is properly resourced, integrated, and accountable
- Your voice and experience are essential in shaping this work
- By attending, you will help ensure the campaign reflects the realities of frontline workers and delivers meaningful reform.
- We strongly encourage all members to attend and have your say
