This unit gives RTOs a specialised community services training option for workers involved in prevention, education, advocacy and community engagement.
Learners develop skills in identifying community awareness needs, researching domestic and family violence issues, planning awareness activities, developing culturally appropriate messages, engaging community stakeholders, delivering education initiatives and evaluating their effectiveness.

CHCDFV003 Promote community awareness of domestic and family violence focuses on building community understanding of domestic and family violence and supporting prevention and early intervention activities. It applies to workers involved in community services, family and domestic violence programs, education, health, social support and related community engagement roles, with emphasis on culturally safe communication, local collaboration and appropriate referral pathways.
The unit addresses five core areas:
The CHCDFV003 RTO training resources provide a foundation for teaching learners about raising community awareness of domestic and family violence. Trainers can connect learning activities with public education initiatives, community engagement strategies and approaches to communicating sensitive information safely and respectfully.
The learning materials can support contextualised delivery across community services, family support organisations and local awareness initiatives. Trainers can incorporate relevant scenarios involving culturally diverse communities, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and other priority groups, while ensuring activities reflect appropriate referral pathways and trauma-informed practice.
Assessment activities can be contextualised around developing awareness messages, identifying target audiences and selecting suitable community engagement approaches. RTOs should ensure assessment tasks gather sufficient evidence of learners’ ability to communicate sensitively, consider safety requirements and promote appropriate support services.
Free samples allow your training team to examine the presentation, structure and content style before making a purchasing decision. Reviewing samples of the CHCDFV003 learning materials helps trainers determine whether the resources suit their learner cohort, delivery approach and organisational requirements.
Where supplied in editable formats, resources can be contextualised to incorporate organisational branding, local support services, referral pathways and relevant workplace procedures. Your RTO can also adjust terminology and examples to reflect Australian community services practice, subject to applicable licence conditions and training package requirements.
