Grant objectives The objective of the grant is to enable FRCs, in partnership with other service providers, to deliver a service model of legally assisted and culturally appropriate family dispute resolution to better support separating or separated families experiencing family violence who are from Indigenous or CALD backgrounds. This early intervention and client-centred initiative will provide frontline services to victims of family violence, by giving them a safe and empowering way to resolve family law disputes without resorting to court. The funding will enable FRCs to partner with existing legal providers, for example, Indigenous legal assistance services, and family violence prevention legal services, community legal centres, legal aid commissions, and local private legal practitioners, and to work collaboratively with services, migrant services, and interpreters. The partnerships will facilitate provision of Family Dispute Resolution (FDR) to vulnerable families experiencing violence, which would involve a legally-assisted model that may be specifically tailored for Indigenous and CALD families. The specific model utilised will be dependent on the circumstances, complexities and needs of individual families.
