IPV Safety Plan


The IPV Safety Plan is a practical tool designed to help practitioners identify warning signs, supportive resources, and concrete steps to stay safe for their clients.



Developed through a trauma-informed lens, the plan supports clients to:

  • Recognise early indicators of distress or unsafe situations
  • Map immediate coping strategies and safe environments
  • Identify supportive people and professional contacts
  • Plan for longer-term stability and recovery
