Marac (Multi-Agency Risk Assessment Conference)

A Multi-Agency Risk Assessment Conference (MARAC) is a coordinated meeting where various professionals—such as police, social workers, and health workers—come together to discuss and develop safety plans for individuals experiencing serious domestic abuse. The goal is to assess the level of risk and share information securely to provide effective support and protection. By working collaboratively, agencies can create a comprehensive strategy tailored to the victim’s safety needs, aiming to reduce harm and prevent further abuse. MARACs are an important part of the system to protect vulnerable individuals and ensure a coordinated response.
