Safeguarding Homes

Family Violence Prevention for African Australians

The foundation of any thriving community is the safety and well-being of its families. Recognising the critical issue of family violence, African Australian Network Alliance Limited stands steadfastly in providing prevention measures, support, and healing avenues, affirming that every family in the African Australian community should thrive in a safe and nurturing environment.

Safe Homes, Stronger Bonds

Our Stand Against Domestic Violence

Knowing that domestic violence prevention is a priority in the Commonwealth of Australia, we must understand that intersectionality is primarily a tool for understanding invisible power relations and how they shape inequality, not identity. Intersectionality looks at “interlocking” systems of oppression and how this plays out in individuals’ lives.

With the help of those who care for humanity and take time to understand the experience of employees belonging to multiple social groups, leaders can learn how oppressions are interlinked and see these issues unsolved in silos. Reducing family is systemic inclusion, removing barriers preventing people from accessing what they need. That might be a service, a workplace, or even the job itself.

Creating a community patrol

Our organisation set up a Neighborhood Watch or a community patrol, working with the police to aid in the prevention of domestic violence. Make sure your streets and homes are well-lighted. Ensure that all the neighbourhood youth have positive ways to spend their spare time through organised recreation, tutoring programs, part-time work, and volunteer opportunities. With the help of good citizens, particularly Australians, we eliminate violence and provide community support services for African Australians.
