Marac toolkit for women’s safety officers

This practical toolkit has been created to support Women’s Safety Officers to:

• understand how the Marac process works and the role their agency plays at the meeting
• make effective referrals to Marac using the Dash risk identification checklist
• prepare for attending a Marac meeting.

As a specialist in domestic violence and risk assessment, you are in a unique position of being able to offer expert advice to the Marac about the dynamics of domestic violence and the extent of the risk, so that an effective action plan can be developed.
