Today marks the launch of the ‘US Without Abuse’ Campaign, led by Kimberley Community Legal Services in partnership with Marninwarntikura Women’s Resource Centre. This initiative represents a unified commitment to debunk the normalisation of violence and foster a safer, more supportive community for all.
The campaign, produced by Wunan Media, incorporates powerful storytelling tailored to resonate deeply with local audiences. By amplifying the voices and experiences of Kimberley people, the campaign seeks to challenge harmful behaviours, promote accountability, and empower individuals to stand against abuse. Spanning online platforms, television, radio, and community spaces, the initiative is designed to create widespread awareness and drive behavioural change.
Christine Robinson, CEO of Kimberley Community Legal Services, highlights the campaign’s local focus “The Kimberley is a region of strength and resilience. By anchoring this campaign in the stories and landscapes of our people, we hope to inspire every individual to reject violence and embrace positive change for themselves and future generations.“
Emily Carter AM, CEO of Marninwarntikura Women’s Resource Centre, emphasised the importance of a collective approach, stating:
“Violence in any form has no place in our communities. This campaign is not just about raising awareness—it’s about creating a cultural shift where respect, care, and safety are our shared priorities. Together, we can make a difference.“
This initiative marks a vital step in reducing the prevalence of Family Domestic Violence and other forms of abuse in the Kimberley, reaffirming a commitment to building a region where all individuals can live with dignity, respect, and freedom from harm.
