Coronavirus Update (COVID-19)
Last updated: 12 August 2020
Lifeline Australia is monitoring and responding to developments to ensure the safety and wellbeing of students of the DV-alert program and Lifeline Centre staff involved in its delivery.
As states and territories ease restrictions, select COVID-19 safe face-to-face DV-alert Workshops and Awareness Sessions are going ahead, whilst others remain on hold. Check Enrolments to see more details about the status of Workshops or Sessions in your state or territory.
If you are currently enrolled in a Workshop or Session and are unsure of its status, please contact the Lifeline Centre through which the enrolment was made. Staff at Lifeline Centres are working hard to ensure accurate information is provided to students and staff as it is made available.
Lifeline is currently developing interactive Virtual Classrooms through which select Workshops and Awareness Sessions will be delivered by Lifeline Centres.
If DV-alert Workshops and Awareness Sessions are currently on hold in your state or territory, the self-paced eLearning DV-alert General Workshop and eLearning DV-alert Disability Workshop continue to operate as normal.
Your patience and understanding during this challenging time is appreciated while development of alternate methods of delivery takes place. Further information will be released once confirmed.
The Australian Government has provided a daily COVID-19 health alert including:
- travel restrictions
- mandatory isolation periods
- symptoms and how to get tested
- resources in other languages
If you or someone you know is struggling with their mental health and wellbeing during the Coronavirus COVID-19 outbreak, please refer to this article on how you can get help.
