Job Description
BDVS is the specialist domestic violence service for the Brisbane metropolitan region. BDVS is funded by the Department of Justice and Attorney General to provide free and confidential services to adults and children who have been impacted by domestic and family violence. BDVS has a focus on achieving safety and stability for the individuals and families that we support.
The Safer and Accountable Men (SAM) Program is a 16-week, open-ended mandated program, based on the Duluth Framework. It is offered to male offenders under the supervision of statutory authorities who have perpetrated violence against their intimate partners. The SAM day program is a voluntarily participated program for participants identified by DJAG Court Link Program (Court Link Program), and Queensland Police Service Brisbane Northside vulnerable persons unit (VPU), as men using violence. It supports men to access information, advise and education around domestic and family violence and equal relationships using Duluth’s ‘Equality Wheel’. Men’s court work provides information and referral to men, including their responsibilities as a respondent on a Domestic Violence Order and legal ramifications in breaching domestic and family violence orders or continuing to use violence within their relationships. The Men’s Program has a core belief that victims of domestic violence have a right to safety, and that perpetrators of violence must be held to account for their behaviour and provided the opportunity for change.
