Positioning Family Safety Advocates as critical partners in identifying, monitoring escalating perpetrator‑driven risk, while honouring their unique advocacy role with victim‑survivors.

Family Safety Advocates often hold the most sustained, trust‑based relationships with victim‑survivors. This proximity gives them unparalleled insight into patterns of coercive control, escalation, and the impacts of perpetrator behaviour on safety, wellbeing, and decision‑making.

FVRISK equips Family Safety Advocates, Family/Partner Contact Practitioners with clear, practical, and sector‑aligned tools to recognise, document, and communicate perpetrator risk indicators, ensuring that risk is not minimised, reframed as mutual conflict, or lost across service systems.
