Inquiry into Family Domestic and Sexual Violence

In November 2020, the Commission provided a submission to the House of Representatives Standing Committee on Social Policy and legal Affairs Inquiry into Family, Domestic and Sexual Violence.

This submission will outline an approach that encourages greater coordination and
partnership between the mental health and DFSV systems and sectors at the national level, in doing so taking a whole-of-government, whole-of-life, cross-sector approach.

We acknowledge the individual and collective contributions of those with a lived and living experience of mental ill-health and suicide, and those who love, have loved and care for them.
