The Reframe Foundation is a newly established Australian charity focused on the prevention and early recognition of domestic and family violence, with a strong emphasis on childhood education and community awareness. Our work centres on developing educational resources, children’s literature, and survivor-informed initiatives that help young people and communities recognise unhealthy relationship patterns early.
The organisation has recently obtained registration with the Australian Charities and Not‑for‑profits Commission and is currently awaiting endorsement from the Australian Taxation Office as a Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR).
