NSW Primary Prevention Multi-Year Partnerships Grant Program

* indicates a required field.

Overview of NSW Primary Prevention Multi-Year Partnerships (MYP)

The NSW Government launched its first Primary Prevention Strategy - Pathways to Prevention: NSW Strategy for the Prevention of Domestic, Family and Sexual Violence 2024-2028 (the Strategy). The Strategy sets out the framework to address the underlying beliefs and attitudes that tolerate and, in many cases, condone the use of violence against women and children.

The NSW Government has committed $5.75 million to support local communities in NSW to be leaders in domestic, family, and sexual violence prevention across their communities through multi-year partnerships to deliver primary prevention projects. From this, NSW Government has committed $4.25 million towards this grant program.

The Purpose of the Grant

This Multi-Year Partnerships MYP grant program is a three-year program that will support organisations to deliver primary prevention of DSFV.

The MYP Grant Program aims to achieve the following objectives:

  1. Establish a consistent and coordinated approach to primary prevention across NSW.
  2. Strengthen primary prevention coordination and collaboration across the state.
  3. Provide opportunities for capacity building within the NSW DFSV sector and community to identify and support all individuals impacted by, or are at risk of violence, particularly in diverse communities.
  4. Foster attitudes, norms, and practices in communities and individuals that support gender equality and prevent DFSV.
