Family Violence - There is no Excuse

Assistant Commissioner of Family Violence Command Dean McWhirter acknowledged the current challenging times for the community and highlighted the different ways victims could seek support. 

"People may be particularly vulnerable during these times as the community stay at home to prevent the spread of coronavirus, but home might not always be the safest place to be,” AC McWhirter said. “We are releasing these videos to remind everyone in our community that Victoria Police continues to help people if they feel unsafe.
