recognise, respond, refer
The aim of DV-alert training is to empower every community frontline worker to be a confident first responder to issues of domestic and family violence. Being the first point of contact for most people in the community, frontline workers have a crucial role to effectively engage with people experiencing domestic and family violence to seek appropriate help and support.
DV-alert is a wholly owned subsidiary of Lifeline Australia, a nationally recognised training program with training and assessment delivered by Lifeline Australia and approved third parties on behalf of Lifeline Australia (RTO 88036). The program is funded by the Australian Government Department of Social Services as a key initiative under the National Plan to End Violence against Women and Children 2022-2032.
DV-alert workshops are led by experienced trainers dedicated to ending violence against women and children. We provide a safe space for frontline workers to learn how to recognise the signs of domestic and family violence, respond confidently and refer appropriately to support services. The range of programs are for frontline workers, paid and volunteering, who provide service and support to the community in the health, allied health, education and community sectors.

It was one of the best courses I’ve ever done. Incredibly educational, informative and supportive. I haven’t stopped thinking about it since and am excited to be doing a presentation to my team back at work on what I learnt.
