About the Leaving Violence Program
The Leaving Violence Program provides financial and other support to help individuals who have left, or are leaving, a partner who uses violence. It is part of the Australian Government’s commitment to ending gender-based violence.
At Telstra Health, we are proud to partner with the Australian Government to deliver this national program. It is delivered in a trauma-informed and person-centred way, prioritising safety, choice, and respect. The program is culturally responsive, with a strong commitment to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, and is accountable to the Department of Social Services, ensuring transparency and compliance. All services are delivered ethically, with integrity, professionalism, and care.
