The plan outlines a system where the specialist family violence and primary prevention sectors work with other sectors. Together they respond to the complexity and harms of family violence and violence against women and children, and prevent it from occurring in the first place. Building from Strength focuses on four key areas: a system that works together building prevention and response capability across the system; strengthening the specialist workforces; workforce health and wellbeing. The Industry Plan was a key recommendation of the Royal Commission into Family Violence and was informed by extensive consultation and collaboration with victim survivors, stakeholders from family violence, primary prevention, community services, health, justice, education and training sectors, including Aboriginal and diverse communities. The Industry Plan is supported by: a capability frameworks that clearly articulate the skills and knowledge needed to prevent family violence and violence against women (#5754), and to respond to victim survivors – including children – and perpetrators of family violence (#5755); a companion report that summarises key findings from the census of workforces that intersect with family violence (#5756). A Rolling Action Plan will be released in May 2018 and will further detail implementation of the Industry Plan. Family Safety Victoria will continue to work closely with victim survivors and the sector to guide putting the plan into action. (From the website). Record #5753
