Domestic, family, and sexual violence (DFSV) is a pattern of behaviours used to control a partner, ex-partner or family member. It can include physical violence, emotional and psychological abuse, social and financial abuse, technology-facilitated abuse, and criminal and non-criminal behaviour. DFSV can occur between current or former intimate partners.

Domestic, family and sexual violence is overwhelmingly experienced by women and men are more commonly the perpetrators of domestic, family and sexual violence. DFSV can happen to anyone.
