MARAM Alignment Survey Report

In October 2023, NIFVS have conducted a MARAM Alignment Survey across the Northern Metropolitan Region.
We are excited to be sharing our key findings and recommendations, which highlight:
– strengthen and support a culture of system-wide collaboration, including strengthening of information sharing processes and policies
– improve workforce capacity building activities to reflect the current service system
-increase workforce capacity and confidence to work safely with people who choose to use violence
strengthen the skills and confidence of practitioners in mainstream organisations to provide inclusive, safe responses to people experiencing violence

“The 2023 NIFVS MARAM Alignment Survey is the first of an annual surveying process designed to establish a baseline for the collection of regional workforce data. Analysis of this data will support systems that monitor how the implementation of these reforms is progressing in the Northern Metropolitan Region (NMR) and whether they are improving family violence practice”.
NIFVS will launch the next survey in March 2025. Stay tuned!
