The Department of Families, Fairness and Housing (DFFH) Annual Report for the 2024-25 financial year was tabled in Parliament on 30 October 2025.

“Our department works to make Victoria a safer, fairer and more inclusive place. We work with some of the most at-risk people in our community. This includes children and young people, families, people with disability, multicultural communities and veterans.

We listen to and engage with the people who use our services.

The support we provide improves people’s daily lives.

Our work also changes the laws, systems and policies that lead to inequality.

In particular, we recognise the impact these systems and structures have had on our First Nations communities. We will work to embed Aboriginal self-determination in everything we do.

To support this process, our Aboriginal Self-Determination and Outcomes Division is improving outcomes for Aboriginal Victorians. We know that First Peoples are best placed to make decisions about the things that affect their lives. Our people are our greatest strength. They are committed to making our state a better place to live, work and raise a family for every Victorian.” – DFFH Secretary’s Foreword
