Domestic and Family Violence: What Can We Do?

The St Mary of the Cross Parish Justice Action Group (JAG) is committed to raising awareness and taking action to address the issue of Domestic and Family Violence. The key activity will be a Parish Forum on Saturday 15 March, from 2.00pm to 3.30pm, at St Brigid’s School Hall.

We recognise that we all have a role to play in creating communities of respectful relationships that prevent domestic and family violence and we seek to answer the question “What can we do?” We will provide information about how to recognise domestic and family violence, how to respond to it and measures we can take to prevent it. A panel of professionals working in the sector will respond to prepared questions on the topic.  Following the presentation, there will be opportunity to seek further information and support and to interact with the speakers and sector organisations over afternoon tea. 

This will be an adults-only event and bookings are required. For further information see below or the website:  https://www.melbcatholic.org/s/mordialloc-aspendale  or on Facebook: m.stmaryofthecross.com/facebook
