Each May, Queensland marks Domestic and Family Violence Prevention Month. This annual initiative aims to raise awareness of domestic and family violence and coercive control, highlight the support services available, and send a clear message that violence in our communities will not be tolerated.
The theme for 2024 is It’s in our control to end coercive control.
To help show your support and add your voice to the cause, we have developed a range of resources for you to share and promote the month with your community and networks.
You can also download a range of resources to use throughout the year to raise awareness about domestic and family violence within your workplaces and communities.
Show your support for DFV Prevention Month by hosting an event and registering the details on the Women’s Safety and Violence Prevention community events calendar.
During the month, we encourage all Queenslanders to get involved by attending community events and activities to raise awareness and increase visibility of domestic and family violence and coercive control.
The Queensland Government is committed to addressing all forms of domestic and family violence, including coercive control, and eradicating these forms of violence from our communities.
