DVNSW has developed a series of introductory film resources to support services who may be new to Core & Cluster and DFV service delivery. You can watch the complete resource or view separate chapters at your own pace. Each chapter focuses on a different policy or practice area and supports alignment with the DVNSW Good Practice Guidelines. These resources also serve as a useful refresher for those services who may already be delivering DFV/refuge services.
