Notes:	Presents the background, methodology, findings and context of a research project aimed at both exploring the extent to which women with disabilities and women who are deaf/hearing-impaired utilise legal and social resources for victims of violence and also identifying the major barriers for these women in accessing resources. An overview of the various models and approaches to disability and literature on domestic violence and women with disabilities is provided and gaps in existing research are highlighted. The focus of the paper is on the issues and problems faced by women with disabilities who have experienced violence, and a series of recommendations for service and legal reform are made.
