Family Violence Triage in Family Courts: Safety, Efficacy and Benefit

在关系分离期间，家庭暴力的风险最高，在家庭法院纠纷中，父母和子女的风险进一步升高。利用联邦家庭法院的分流试点计划，这个伙伴关系项目的目的是研究风险的途径，负担和分离后DFV的成本，以及早期DFV分流的效率和成本效益。该项目旨在产生有关家庭和系统安全驱动因素的新知识，推进DFV分诊有效性的证据，并将研究结果转化为预防DFV伤害的新资源。这项世界首创的研究旨在为全球家庭法政策和实践提供信息，为澳大利亚弱势家庭和社会带来代际利益。

Domestic and family violence (DFV) risks are highest during relationship separation, elevated further for parents and children involved in Family Court disputes. Utilising the federal Family Courts’ Triage pilot program, this partnership project aims to examine risk pathways, burdens and costs of post-separation DFV, and the efficacy and cost-benefits of early DFV triage. The project intends to produce new knowledge about family and systemic drivers of safety, to advance evidence on the efficacy of DFV triage and to translate findings into new resources for preventing DFV harms. This world-first study aims to inform global family law policy and practice, with inter-generational benefit for vulnerable Australian families and for society.
