Title:	Changing lives : a new approach to family violence in Victoria
Authors:	Victorian Department of Human Services, Office for Children
Keywords:	Criminal justice responses;Interagency work;Policy;Policing
Year:	2005
Publisher:	Victorian Department of Human Services
Notes:	This outlines the Victorian Government’s approach to address family violence through developing an integrated system by working together with the police, courts and community services, to respond to family violence. This forms the core part of A Fairer Victoria. It highlights some key facts about family violence in Victoria, what the new approach is, and actions taken place. Two changes already taking place include strengthening the police response (new Police Code of Practice in August 2004) and improving the justice system response (a family violence court division of the Magistrates’ Court at 2 sites in Ballarat and Heidelberg).
