Family Violence Regional Integration Committees (FVRIC) are groups that work with local services and agencies to:
- understand local community needs, challenges and opportunities to strengthen responses to family violence
- work together to respond to family violence
- provide input to decision making on family violence policy and initiatives.
Each committee is made up of local services and agencies that respond to family violence. They are led by a chair and a Family Violence Principal Strategic Advisor (PSA).
