Grants: Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Action Plan 2023-2025

The Australian Government’s Department of Social Services has opened four key grant opportunities to provide support for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander victim-survivors of family, domestic and sexual violence.

The grants will also support the implementation of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Action Plan 2023-2025 and will help to end violence in our communities.

The Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Action Plan 2023-2025 aims to address the immediate safety needs of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women, children and families.

The grants will provide funding for immediate work in 4 key areas of the Action Plan: 

  • Community-led prevention services, programs and campaigns for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children
  • Community-led men’s wellness centres
  • Family, domestic and sexual violence programs in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Community-Controlled Organisations (ACCOs)
  • Increasing capacity of crisis accommodation services

Community organisations are encouraged to apply.

Applications close on Friday, 16 February 2024.
