Activity details

Demonstrate a governance structure inclusive of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander stakeholders, built from strengthening existing decision-making structures developed by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. Advise, agree and contribute to the mechanisms that will support the implementation of the National Plan and Action Plan, and monitor and report on performance for Commonwealth, state and territory initiatives to ensure the National Plan is effective.

Implementation progress update

A key component of NSW Health's Violence, Abuse and Neglect state-wide governance structure is the NSW Health Prevention and Response to Violence, Abuse and Neglect (PARVAN) Aboriginal Advisory Group. The group provides advice on policy and system reform on a range of issues related to Aboriginal people, families, communities, workers and organisations. This includes but is not limited to promoting cultural safety through strategies to strenghten the connections with NSW Health's Violence, Abuse and Neglect services and Aboriginal Community Controlled Health services.
