Who is this Training for?
This training is aimed at practitioners in the family violence sector and workers from organisations and services in the South West whose work intersects with family violence i.e. allied health, mental health, emergency and first responder services, AOD and housing & homelessness services, among others.
Registrations are encouraged from all individuals wanting to learn about how to work collaboratively to respond to victim survivors’ risk and safety and keep perpetrators of violence accountable.
Trainers include locally based family violence practitioners with extensive local family violence expertise and knowledge.
Note that this training is not risk assessment training, refer to the Safe and Equal website for other MARAM training relevant to your role.
What is MARAM?
MARAM stands for Multi-Agency Risk Assessment Management Framework. The MARAM Framework establishes a systems-wide understanding of what family violence is and how to respond to it.
It aims to increase the safety of victim survivors by ensuring that organisations whose work intersects with family violence can effectively identify, assess and manage family violence risk, and keep perpetrators in view and accountable for their actions.
