The Australian Institute of Health and Welfare (AIHW), with funding from the Australian Government Department of Social Services (DSS), is developing a prototype (pilot) data collection on government-funded specialist crisis family and domestic violence (FDV) services provided to victim-survivors.
Overall, the project provides an opportunity for governments to agree which data would be most meaningful to include in a future national data collection to meet stakeholder information requirements, and the best process to achieve this.
This summary report provides a recommended way forward for the pilot data collection, drawing on in-depth consultation completed by AIHW to June 2025.
