Join the MARAM Community of Practice: Strengthening Collaboration in Family Violence Support

We’re excited to invite professionals working in Child and Family Services and allied sectors to join The MARAM Community of Practice in 2025.

Running bi-monthly, The MARAM Community of Practice offers a unique opportunity to collaborate, share knowledge, and develop practical skills in addressing family violence, while aligning with the Family Violence Multi-Agency Risk Assessment and Management (MARAM) Framework.

What the MARAM Community of Practice Offers

The MARAM Community of Practice is a platform designed to help professionals better understand their roles and responsibilities under the MARAM Framework. By joining, you’ll be part of a dynamic group working to:

• Build a shared understanding of family violence and how MARAM should be incorporated into everyday practice.
• Share good practice and engage in reflective discussions on family violence-related work.
• Increase awareness of the importance of multi-agency collaboration and practice.

This initiative will be invaluable for professionals at the practice level, including:

• Team Leaders
• Practice Leads
• Case Managers
• Case Workers and Practitioners

How The MARAM Community of Practice Works

Meetings will be held online bi-monthly via Microsoft Teams, allowing for flexibility and easy access. Sessions will typically last between 60 and 90 minutes, depending on the theme or activity. The Centre’s Information Sharing Project Officer will chair each meeting, ensuring a structured, informative, and interactive experience.

Participating in these sessions will allow you to engage with peers, learn from one another, and deepen your understanding of how to best address family violence within your role.

Whether you’re new to MARAM or looking to refine your practice, The MARAM Community of Practice will help you build the skills and confidence needed to contribute to a coordinated, effective response to family violence.
