Safe Steps

The organisation works to ensure safety and wellbeing in high-risk situations while also advocating for long-term change through research, policy development, and awareness campaigns. Its vision is a future free from violence, built on safety and equality for all.

The Orange Door is a free service in Victoria that supports adults, children, and young people experiencing family violence, as well as families who need extra help with the care and wellbeing of children. It brings together workers from specialist family violence, child and family, Aboriginal and men’s services to provide coordinated support tailored to each person’s needs. The service helps with safety planning, connecting to practical assistance, and linking people with ongoing services in their community.
