We work to ensure the safety and wellbeing of children, young people and their families. We fund and deliver a range of early intervention, statutory and support services across areas including child protection, out-of-home care, family violence and youth affairs.

We work to make the social housing and homelessness system work better for people. Making accommodation more affordable and accessible is not just a social good, it’s also good for the economy. It allows Victorians to participate more easily in employment and the community.

Through targeted investment in infrastructure, workforce and innovation, we are ensuring that all Victorians can get the treatment and care they need, more easily and more quickly – so that they live healthier and longer lives.

Our aim is to keep Victorians as healthy as possible and to prevent the avoidable burden of disease and injury. We want to enable all Victorians to enjoy the highest attainable standards of health, wellbeing, and participation at every age.

We are committed to creating a healthier, fairer and more inclusive society. That means the best possible mental health for everyone, particularly people who are disadvantaged and vulnerable.

We provide legislation, policy and guidelines for statewide drug and alcohol programs, helping Victorians to stay healthy and well. We fund and coordinate statewide drug and alcohol programs including early interventions, education and information, treatment and extended care services.

Our work improves both the access and quality of services for Victoria’s older population – delivering policy, programs and services to meet their diverse needs. We want older Victorians to achieve their best health and wellbeing.

We are working to create a more inclusive Victoria, where people with a disability get the opportunities they deserve - while assisting families, carers and organisations to transition to the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS).

Ambulance Victoria is an essential service providing fast, world-class treatment and transport to Victorian’s facing life threatening medical emergencies. We are committed to working with Ambulance Victoria to improve the way the service supports the community and its paramedics.
