The NSW Health Education Centre Against Violence (ECAV) has been working with Aboriginal Communities since 1985. During this time the organisation has developed rapport and trust resulting in a high profile amongst key Aboriginal people. ECAV is committed to enhancing the quality and accessibility of services to Aboriginal people whose lives have been affected by sexual assault, family violence and child abuse.
