What’s the Sexual, Family and Domestic Violence (SDFV) Service?

The SFDV service is a project operating from our Surry Hills, Newcastle and Lismore offices, providing specialist care coordination and counselling services to LGBTQ+ people experiencing sexual, family and/or domestic violence.

Ok, so what’s the role?

The Care Coordinator / Counsellor roles are essentially a combination of case management and brief counselling in response to clients with experience of SDFV. This service is only for LGBTQ+ folk and recognises the unique contexts in which SDFV occurs for people of diverse sexualities and genders, and its impacts. You will:

- Maintain a caseload of LGBTQ+ clients who have experienced sexual, domestic and/or family violence. Some clients may also be seeking support in relation to gender and/or sexuality, mental health, substance support, ageing, housing, and/or be newly diagnosed or living longer-term with HIV.
- Collaborate with clients, other services, supervisors and managers to assess, manage and mitigate risk in a victim / survivor focused and trauma-informed manner.

Who are we looking for?:

- Someone who has an understanding of ACON’s communities and the unique complexities of working with LGBTQ+ clients who have experienced SDFV.
- Someone with real enthusiasm for working with victim / survivors of SDFV and can bring energy, optimism along with an organised, collaborative working style to the role.

What else can we tell you?

ACON provides a colourful, nurturing, and fun workplace. Our employees and volunteers are the foundation for our ongoing effectiveness and for our capacity to deliver innovative community engagement and health promotion programs and initiatives for our communities.
- Flexible working arrangements.
- Generous learning and development opportunities.
- Potential for tailored mentoring opportunities.
- Supportive working environment with a knowledgeable and friendly team.

You will be part of the Community Health team which delivers Care Coordination, counselling, substance support counselling, peer mental health support, trans mental health and trans peer support across NSW.
