The Standard aims to encourage good practice and a systematic, evidence-based approach to screening for family violence, assessing risk, and developing safety planning interventions. It is designed to be generic and applicable across different sectors and sites.

It is recognised as good practice by the New Zealand Police and those agencies involved in the Standard's development. General information related to working with family violence is provided in the document.

Flow charts and examples from agencies are included. Various kinds of risk assessment are defined and their purposes and procedures are outlined, along with suggested risk assessment questions and examples of resources already being used in New Zealand.
