We connect with all corners of the community to challenge for change and put an end to domestic and family violence.

Since 2001, Challenge DV has stood with the Australian community committed to ending domestic and family violence. We help foster supportive cultures, free from violence and abuse, through awareness, advocacy, education, partnerships and events - driving change for a world where everyone lives with the safety, dignity and respect they deserve.

We make an impact by:

• Building advocacy - Harnessing our profile and the voices of our community, we actively seek to shape legislation and policies that protect affected individuals and keep domestic and family violence prevention on the local and national agenda - creating systemic change

• Collaborative partnerships - We team up with leaders, policymakers and stakeholders across government, businesses, charities, frontline services and the community to build a network of support that strengthens community responses to domestic violence

• Raising awareness - We bring domestic violence into the spotlight through public affairs and campaigns that educate the public, challenge harmful norms, and promote respectful relationships, encouraging a community-wide commitment to prevention

• Education and training - We design and deliver impactful domestic and family violence prevention programs that cater to the specific needs of organisations and groups, equipping leaders and staff with the skills they need to recognise the signs of abuse and take effective action

• Creating change - We invest in initiatives that prevent domestic and family violence and develop new solutions to generate even greater impact

• Uniting communities - We host events, such as Darkness to Daylight, to raise awareness and funds that make every step count towards ending domestic and family violence.
