On cover: April 2024

Te Puna Aonui agencies are committed to addressing family violence and sexual violence (FVSV) service gaps, particularly gaps that affect tangata whenua, children and young people, Pacific peoples, disabled people, LGBTQIA+ communities,
ethnic communities, older people, male victims/survivors, gang whānau, and people who use violence. This plan refers to these cohorts as ‘tangata whenua and people from diverse communities.
The Gaps report suggests a potential two-phase approach to addressing five overarching FVSV service gaps. The first phase focuses on strengthening existing FVSV services and the second on expanding and developing tailored services for
tangata whenua and people from diverse communities. Strengthening what we already have will deliver timely and wide-reaching support across the FVSV system. Increasing the accessibility, safety, and effectiveness of existing FVSV services will hone what needs to be addressed through expanding and developing tailored services. (From the document).
