WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT AND COMMUNITY EDUCATION
Our Workforce Development and Community Education team provides workforce development and undertakes capacity building projects across the sector with the aim of building a thriving and sustainable workforce. We also undertake a range of prevention and community activities to support the wider community to prevent and respond to sexual violence.
Workforce Development Standing Committee
The Workforce Development Standing Committee provides advice to SASVic and supports the ongoing implementation and development of education and training projects, including but not limited to the workforce development program.

The Harmful Sexual Behaviour Network
This network meets once a month and is open to staff in the specialist sexual assault sector working with children engaging in harmful sexual behaviour.
Please email secretariat@sasvic.org.au to receive the calendar invite.
ADVOCACY, EVIDENCE AND IMPACT
SASVic can support you by amplifying the issues you face in your work, advocating for systems change and building the evidence base on sexual violence. We’re also here to support the important research and evaluation projects you may be undertaking.
Ways you can inform our advocacy
SASVic often undertakes consultation with members. You can inform this work through our standing committee or look out for invitations in the fortnightly member update.
Visit our Ending Sexual Violence Hub to find out about our most recent campaigns and submissions.
You can also tell us about a trend that you're seeing in your work or a challenge you're consistently coming up against. You can email our Advocacy, Evidence and Impact Manager Amy Webster at amy.webster@sasvic.org.au to let us know what you're seeing.
