Refuge Victoria is an independent not-for-profit incorporated association governed by a volunteer Board of Directors. Our directors govern and guide Refuge Victoria and are committed to the organisation’s vision for people escaping family violence to live safe and free.

Our current Board Treasurer’s term concludes in late 2024 so we are seeking a new Treasurer and Chair of the Finance, Risk & Audit Committee. This is a unique volunteer opportunity to join our Board to help shape the future direction of Refuge Victoria to ensure its agility and sustainability. Find out more here.
