Good Practice Guidelines

The Second Edition of the DVNSW Good Practice Guidelines has been developed based on feedback from the sector and recommendations from an independent review in 2019/20 by the University of NSW. Through extensive consultation, these guidelines have evolved to have a greater focus on intersectionality and redesigned to be more user-friendly and practical.
