Mandate domestic violence training for all family court & social workers

Background

We want the Government to mandate accredited training in domestic abuse, coercive control and trauma for all social workers and family-court professionals. We believe national standards must be set to ensure consistent safeguarding and better protection for survivors and children.

Additional details

Training should be nationally standardised, routinely updated, and required for qualification and ongoing practice. We believe this is needed to improve safeguarding, ensure consistent decisions, and reduce risk to survivors and children.
