Level: 5.1
Salary: $96,368 per annum/pro rata
Hours/Employment Status: Permanent Full Time

The Domestic Violence Specialist Children’s Service (DVSCS) is one component of Tangentyere’s Family Violence Prevention Programs (FVPP). The FVPP is an integrated program with components designed to meet the needs of men, women, young people and children who have been affected by issues of domestic and family violence, as well as primary prevention work, and also consists of a Men’s Behaviour Change Program, the Tangentyere Women’s Family Safety Group, and the Young Women’s Family Safety Group.

The DVSCS provides specialist early intervention support for Aboriginal young people, aged between 12 and 18, who have been impacted by domestic and family violence.

By creating age-appropriate and gender-based family and domestic violence critical interventions and youth informed services, the DVSCS is designed to:
Support young people’s understanding of domestic and family violence through education, and to provide frameworks for relationships that are respectful, safe and free from violence.
Increase the safety, health and wellbeing of young people, their families, and the broader community.
Contribute to intergenerational change by shifting harmful attitudes and beliefs around gender, masculinity, and violence in relationships.

The development and delivery of the Domestic and Family Violence Specialist Children’s Services will complement the work already achieved by the Alice Springs Response to Domestic and Family Violence and will build on strong interagency relationships to ensure the best outcomes for children and young people impacted by violence, as well as their families and community.
