Crime Stoppers NSW has launched a new family and domestic violence campaign, urging communities to contact police if they see, hear or suspect domestic violence.
The campaign sends the message that one phone call could be the difference between someone dying or surviving. It builds on the NSW’s Government’s commitment to reduce domestic and family violence, including the NSW and Commonwealth investment of more than $21 million to boost frontline services in response to COVID-19.
The campaign follows the murder of five women and one man in domestic violence incidents in the last eight weeks, with one victim only 18 years old.
