Screening and assessment tools
Overview
In 2021 the Victorian State Government engaged Turning Point to facilitate alignment of the standard adult alcohol and drug screening and assessment tools developed in 2013, to the family violence MARAM (Multi Agency Risk Assessment & Management) Framework. As with past projects sector consultation informed the tools, through a sector working group and a series of online workshops.
