Gippsland Family Violence Alliance acknowledges the Gunai/Kurnai, Bunurong, Bidewell & Ngarigo/Monero people as the Traditional Owners and Custodians of the lands now also known as Gippsland. We pay our respects to elders past, present and visiting and acknowledge they hold the stories, traditions, spiritual connection and living cultures of this Country.

We recognise the Gunai/Kurnai, Bunurong, Bidewell & Ngarigo/Monero people’s long and continued connection and protection of the beautiful coastline from the oceans through inland areas and to the rugged southern slopes of the mountain ranges. We recognise their continued connection to these lands and waters and acknowledge that they have never ceded sovereignty. Always Was Always Will Be, Aboriginal Land!

Gippsland Family Violence Alliance acknowledges that the systemic impacts of colonisation still exist today and that we are committed to respectful truth telling and working with our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Communities to improve women’s, children’s and men’s health, wellbeing and self-determination and to achieving reconciliation as a nation.

Gippsland Family Violence Alliance recognizes that the LGBTIQ+ community experiences family violence and pledges to provide non-discriminatory representation, promote inclusive practice and affirm environments where the LGBTIQ+ community and individuals can feel safe, supported and accepted.

The Gippsland Family Violence Alliance would like to acknowledge the victims and survivors of family violence, whose tenacity, advocacy and courage have shaped the family violence service sector and provided us with the evidence base for our work. We would also like to acknowledge those who have lost their lives due to family violence and the families, friends and communities who have been impacted by these devastating crimes.
