Compassion is a choice

Change The Record is a First Nations led coalition of legal, health and family violence prevention experts. Change The Record is campaigning to end the incarceration of, and family violence against, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander People. They work with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities to invest in holistic early intervention, prevention and diversion strategies. These are smarter, evidence-based and more cost-effective solutions that increase safety, address the root causes of violence against women and children, cut reoffending and imprisonment rates, and build stronger communities.

They are determined to:

1. Close the gap in rates of imprisonment by 2040
2. Cut the disproportionate rates of violence to at least close the gap by 2040 with priority strategies for women and children
