dc.description.notesOverview: This book chapter provides an overview of the Australian approach to intimate partner violence (IPV) as it has been shaped by the various policy decisions and recent campaigns of the Federal Government, state governments and other support services. It describes the invisibility of same-sex IPV due to the discourse adopted by this position.<br/ ><br/ >Discussion: The problem of IPV has long been defined almost exclusively as an issue affecting heterosexual relationships but research shows that the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or intersex (LGBTI) community experiences IPV at rates similar to those found in the heterosexual community. However, from the 1998 Western Australian “Freedom From Fear – Campaign Against Domestic Violence” to the 2004 social marketing campaign to, “Violence Against Women, Australia Says No”, governments have presented a single scenario where men are violent and women are passive. State services which deal with IPV generally fall short in providing useful information to the LGBTI community, although the New South Wales Police Force and the Queensland Police Service have made available Gay and Lesbian Liaison Officers and LGBTI Liaison Officers, respectively, who deal specifically with those communities.<br/ ><br/ >While government agencies now at least acknowledge the existence of same sex domestic violence, the challenge remains for a more comprehensive understanding to be reached of how same-sex domestic violence differs from heterosexual domestic violence and how the subject needs to be approached in order for support services to frame effective interventions.en
