White Ribbon Australia Community Partners and Supporters are people who want to help prevent men’s violence against women in the communities and networks they know.
Community Supporters and Community Partners share a commitment to preventing men’s violence against women.
The right option depends on how your group or organisation would like to participate.
Community Supporters contribute through everyday actions that raise awareness and make prevention more visible.
You might follow and share White Ribbon Australia content, use our resources, attend an event, support a fundraiser or start a conversation with someone you know.
You do not need to be an expert, organise an event or make a significant time commitment. You can start with one action that feels achievable and build from there if you choose.
Community Partners take a more active and ongoing role in bringing prevention into their existing networks and community settings.
Partners may facilitate conversations, share resources, organise local activities, connect White Ribbon Australia with new networks and encourage workplaces or organisations to strengthen their approach to prevention.
Community Partners also have opportunities to learn from and connect with others through state-based groups and the Community of Practice.
Every action counts. Choose the opportunities that feel realistic for your availability, setting and confidence.
Community Supporters take simple, flexible actions that help make prevention more visible.

We welcome interest from people who support White Ribbon Australia’s purpose and are willing to learn, reflect, follow program guidance and take safe, respectful action.
Participation is not a counselling, crisis response or spokesperson role. Community Partners do not represent themselves as family and domestic violence specialists unless they hold separate relevant qualifications.
Send us a message and one of the team will get in touch with more details.
White Ribbon Australia acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of country throughout Australia and their connections to land, sea and community.
We pay our respect to their Elders past and present and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today.
