Activity details
Delivering culturally specific flexible support packages for migrant and refugee women on temporary visas who have experienced family violence.
This activity is state-funded and part of a broader activity to strengthen family violence services to provide trauma-informed and intersectional services to clients with diverse needs by delivering efforts through the 10‑year Everybody Matters: Inclusion and Equity Statement.
Implementation progress update
InTouch has delivered 360 flexible support packages that respond to temporary visa holders, including refugees, over the past 12 months.
Flexible Support Packages are state funded and provide flexible funding to support the longer-term recovery of victim-survivors and can include a wide range of supports such as counselling, housing stability, and other practical or material needs, depending on the victim-survivor’s individual needs.
The broader Flexible Support Package program funds 22 organisations to provide personalised support for victim-survivors of family violence in way that is inclusive and respectful of an individual’s history, background, culture, circumstances and experiences.
