May is Domestic Violence Awareness Month in Queensland. 💜
Family violence can take many forms. It is not always physical - it can include coercive control, intimidation, financial abuse, emotional abuse, surveillance, and behaviours designed to create fear or isolation.
No one should feel unsafe in their relationship or in their own home.
This month is an important reminder that support exists, and that compassionate, informed guidance can make a meaningful difference during incredibly difficult circumstances.
If you or someone you know needs support, there are people and services ready to help.
You can call DV Connect on 1800 811 811 or 1800 RESPECT on 1800 737 732 (24 hours a day, 7 days a week).
If you or someone else is in danger, please call 000.
