Community Recognition Statement

We can never tolerate domestic violence in our society.

The physical, emotional, mental and financial toll that domestic violence can take on its victims cannot be underestimated.

But neither should our commitment to stamping out these insidious crimes.

I had the privilege of attending the recent Creating Harmony in Life seminar hosted by the Multicultural Society of Campbelltown Incorporated.

The seminar was devoted to standing up and speaking out to end the cycle of domestic violence.

The speaking panel was insightful and provided valuable information on family violence to community members in the audience.

I want to pay tribute to organiser Asma Alan and everyone from the Multicultural Society of Campbelltown for facilitating such a worthwhile seminar.

To every organiser, speaker, helper and attendee on the day – I commend your commitment to stamping out domestic violence.

Events such as the Creating Harmony in Life seminar help provide education, share information on support services and create awareness of family violence.

I am proud to say my local community continually proves to be a formidable force against domestic violence.
