dc.description.notesSpecial issue title 'Out of the fire: domestic violence and homelessness'<br/ >Also published as DVIRC Newsletter Autumn Edition, February 2001<br/ >Outlines the role of the Australian Federation of Homeless Organisations (AFHO) and their most recent initiative, the Homelessness Policy Platform. Argues advocacy is essential to the role of the AFHO as it informs policy makers and influences policy decisions but also recognises that policy forms the ‘backbone’ of advocacy work undertaken by the AFHO. Contends that any policy must be grounded in the experience of service providers and users if it is to be effective. Outlines the key aspects of the AFHO’s policy on women, domestic violence and homelessness, emphasising the gendered nature of violence in the home and the need to address access and equity issues for minority and marginalised groups, such as Indigenous or refugee women.en
