The #nomorerallyagainstviolence was held this morning in Mparntwe/Alice Springs to raise awareness about the alarming national crisis of domestic, family, and sexual violence (DFSV). We heard powerful speeches from Chay Brown, Charlene Campbell, PC Clarke, Anna Ryan and Kumalie Riley Kngwarraye addressing the alarming situation in the Northern Territory and asking for critical funding, secure housing, true representation, and mandatory trauma-informed training for first responders.

DFSV survivors are at higher risk of depression, anxiety, substance misuse disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder and suicide.

If you or someone you know is in immediate danger, call 000 and ask for the police.

You can talk to a specialist domestic and family violence counsellor 24 hours, 7 days a week by calling the 1800RESPECT National Sexual Assault and Domestic Violence Counselling Service on 1800 737 732. ... See MoreSee Less
