Social Networkers to Confront Family Violence Online
Source: Victoria. Attorney General. Media Release
"The Brumby Government will harness the power of Facebook and Bebo in the fight against family violence, Deputy Premier and Attorney-General Rob Hulls said. The $1.5 million family violence public awareness campaign, Family Violence. Victoria has had Enough, began in December and supports the new Family Violence Protection Act. Launching the internet-based component of the campaign, Mr Hulls said Facebook and Bebo would reach a broader and younger audience and increase community awareness of the new family violence laws.“The Brumby Government is taking action to protect young people,” Mr Hulls said."
