dc.description.notes | It is widely documented within the relevant literature and from the experiences of workers that escaping domestic violence is a difficult and dangerous process for women and their children. These difficulties and dangers are compounded for women who are on temporary visas, with a multitude of barriers preventing access to appropriate pathways to safety. The existence of such barriers limits options available to women and may leave women particularly vulnerable to further abuse and exploitation.<br/ ><br/ >The authors of this article have worked for many years to support women experiencing domestic and family violence who are on temporary migration visas. Women's House Shelta and the Immigrant Women's Support Service (IWSS), both in Brisbane, have identified a number of emerging issues for women in Australia who are on temporary visas and have experienced domestic violence. These issues include financial barriers, access to Australian service systems, such as healthcare, crisis and public housing, legal assistance and protection for children. Further difficulties are experienced where women on temporary visas are also from non-English speaking backgrounds.<br/ ><br/ >Women's House Shelta and IWSS are seeking to collaborate with other community members and agencies across the country to address these issues. | en |
