Our Plan for Women

Labor will always fight for the rights of women.

For decades, we've been driving change towards equality. From improving access to health services and supporting women at work to protecting the safety of women and girls right across our community.

We've made surgical and medical abortions free, removing financial barriers for people seeking an abortion in the ACT.

We've made record investments into frontline domestic, family and sexual violence services, including specialist perpetrator behaviour-change programs, and programs to support children and young people.

And we've rolled out free three-year-old preschool, helping children get the best start to their learning and helping parents get back to work.

But we know there is more to do, and we're committed to ensuring that women in the ACT are empowered, supported, and given the opportunity to thrive in all areas of life.

That's what our progressive, practical and proven Women’s Plan is all about.

Building on the progress we've made, and pushing even further to promote gender equality right across our community.
