Notes:	The National Plan provides the framework for action by the Commonwealth, state and territory governments to reduce violence against women and their children. The central goals of the National Plan are to reduce violence against women and their children and to improve how governments work together, increase support for women and their children, and create innovative and targeted ways to bring about change. The National Plan is unprecedented in the way it focuses on preventing violence by raising awareness and building respectful relationships in the next generation. The aim is to bring attitudinal and behavioural change at the cultural, institutional and individual levels, with a particular focus on young people. As well as focusing on prevention measures, the National Plan will allow women who have experienced violence to rebuild their lives as quickly as possible as part of a community-wide response. This will enable mainstream and specialist services to work together to improve their responses so that women return to full social and economic participation as soon as possible. The National Plan also recognises and acknowledges the diverse experiences of women and their children, and the need to ensure responses meet their specific circumstances. The National Plan sets out six national outcomes for all governments to deliver during the next 12 years. The outcomes will be delivered through four three-year action plans, the first of which runs from 2010 to 2013.
