About

Respect Victoria is the dedicated organisation for the prevention of family violence and violence against women in Victoria. Our vision is a Victoria where everyone is safe, equal and respected.

We are committed to stopping violence from occurring in the first place, by changing the conditions that drive it. We do this by leading and supporting evidence-informed primary prevention across Victoria, and act as a catalyst for transformational social change. 

Our evidence-informed primary prevention work includes:

  • driving quality, sustained uptake of prevention work across the state
  • building knowledge and evidence about what works to prevent violence
  • keeping prevention on the policy and public agenda
  • supporting social change and educating the community that violence is preventable.
