No to Violence
Easter is often seen as a time for family, connection, and celebration. But for many women and children, long weekends like this can bring increased risk of family and domestic violence. More time at home, financial stress, alcohol use, and heightened tensions can create environments where violence escalates. Last year, Victoria Police reported 1,471 family violence incidents statewide between Good Friday and Easter Monday, including 368 on Easter Sunday alone. For those living with violence, this period can mean feeling trapped, on edge, or unsafe in their own homes, at a time when support services may be harder to reach and others are less likely to notice. This is the reality behind the long weekend that often goes unseen. Every woman and child deserves to feel safe - during Easter, and every day. Together, we can create that safety by expecting accountability, supporting those affected, and choosing respect in our homes, relationships, and communities. If you are concerned about your own behaviour, or how a friend or relative behaves towards their partner, children or another family member, there is support available. The Men’s Referral Service has trained counsellors who can work with you to provide free, non-judgmental support to help you understand your behaviour and what you can do to change. If you're ready to talk or need someone to listen; support is here for you. 24/7. Men’s Referral Service: 1300 766 491 or visit mrs.org.au ... See MoreSee Less
