These guidelines present best practice guidance and examples to help the family violence, sexual assault and child wellbeing sectors (the sectors) provide regular and effective supervision for their workforces.
They set out the level and quality of supervision future graduates and career changers can expect.
They also aim to support the wellbeing and sustainability of the current workforce. This will help to improve attraction, recruitment and retention in the sectors.

- Hewson and Carrol, 2016
