Project goals

The Department of Communities and Justice is seeking to procure 10 new services to deliver the Staying Home Leaving Violence (SHLV) program across 24 Local Government Areas in NSW.

SHLV is a specialised domestic and family violence program that aims to reduce risk to women and children experiencing domestic and family violence and prevent them from experiencing homelessness. SHLV supports women and children to stay safely in their own home, or a home of their choice, while the perpetrator is removed. The SHLV service model delivers intensive case management, which is long-term, needs-based and integrated with key agencies such as NSW Police, Women’s Domestic Violence Court Advocacy Service, health services, housing and relevant non-government organisations.

Service providers must be non-government, not-for-profit and incorporated entities operating in NSW. The successful service providers will be contracted to deliver the services for 4 years and 3 months + 2-year option to extend on or immediately before 1 April 2025 – 30 June 2031.

Scope

Staying Home Leaving Violence (SHLV) is a case management program that aims to support women and children leaving domestic and family violence (DFV) to remain safely in their home or a home of their choice. It is based on early intervention and prevention principles and provides flexible, needs based specialist support.
