We can help if you’re experiencing family and domestic violence

Published: 25 November 2025

Family and domestic violence (FDV) can affect anyone no matter their age, gender or sexual orientation. It’s important to protect yourself and stay safe.

The United Nations 16 Days of Activism against Gender-based Violence runs from 25 November to 10 December.

If you’re affected by FDV we can help you get some of the support and services you may need, including:

  • arranging your own Medicare card
  • updating your personal details and representative arrangements
  • checking your eligibility for any payments and services
  • arranging for you to meet with a social worker to discuss additional help available.
