Good Morning,
This Wednesday, May 1st, is National Family Violence Remembrance Day – a solemn day to remember those who have lost their lives to family and domestic violence, and stand in solidarity with survivors and communities working to end the cycle of abuse. 💜
The stats are heartbreaking:
1 in 3 women in Australia has experienced physical violence since the age of 15. [ABS, 2021]
On average, one woman is killed by a current or former partner every 10 days. [AIHW, 2023]
Family and domestic violence is the leading cause of homelessness for women and children. [AIHW, 2023]
Behind each statistic is a person. A family. A story that could have ended differently.

💜 Why raising awareness matters
Family violence thrives in silence. Remembrance Day brings attention to this national crisis, encouraging us to speak up, listen without judgment, and take action.
It’s also a time to acknowledge frontline organisations and individuals working tirelessly to support survivors and prevent further violence.
💜 Take Action: Support Juno
Juno is a support and advocacy organisation working across Melbourne’s north. They partner with women (trans and cis), non-binary people and their children who are experiencing homelessness, housing stress, family violence, and financial hardship.
Juno's mission is to partner with women and gender diverse people to enhance their safety, increase their independence, and enable them to thrive. Their vision is a community where all women and gender diverse people and their children are safe and empowered.
Proudly an intersectional feminist organisation, Juno amplifies lived experience voices and advocates for structural change to address gender inequity and the barriers faced by the communities they support.
Their holistic, trauma-informed, and person-centered approach supports people to find stable housing, recover from trauma, achieve financial independence, and reconnect with their communities.

With your help, Juno can expand support services, strengthen advocacy efforts, and create more pathways to long-term stability for those at risk of or experiencing homelessness, while also supporting people to build lives free from violence.
👉 Donate to Juno to help create a world where everyone has a right to safety, housing, and dignity.
This week, Choose to Remember. Choose to Stand Together. Choose to Support.
