  • Domestic and Sexual Abuse Strategy and Performance Framework 2024 - 2031

    Topics:
    • Social Care Policy, 
    • Social services policy and Circulars

    Date published: 25 September 2024

    The Department of Health and the Department of Justice, as lead policy Departments for domestic and sexual abuse, have published a new strategy and performance framework for tackling domestic and sexual abuse in Northern Ireland. 

    The vision for the strategy is that Northern Ireland is a place where:

    • Domestic and/or sexual abuse is not tolerated, and everyone can be safe and free from fear.
    • Domestic and/or sexual abuse is everyone’s business, where partnership work and collaborative approaches create lasting change across our communities and provide hope.
    • The voice of victims, including children and young people, is valued and central to decision making.
