| dc.description.notes | Comments on the undertones of blame (in reports) attached to women being the predominant users of SAAP services. Notes that the SAAP programme, which aims to support victims of violence, also has responsibilities in supporting homeless young people and single men (the demographic group highly represented in data of perpetrators of violent crime). The author asks if SAAP delivers just outcomes for women, especially since, in Victoria, services to single men cost more per agency than services to women and children escaping violence. Support provided to men is in general higher than the mean established for all services, while women (ALL women in the Victorian SAAP) receive less than the mean. Further, services to women vary regionally. Anglo men appear to gain the most from the SAAP programme. The author calls for a clear definition of homelessness, one that includes those who are violent to others with whom they live. Recommends the development of an agreement between government, policy makers and direct service workers on finding better ways of integrating the policy context of violence with SAAP practices. Also recommends that children be SAAP clients in their own right, as at the moment, they are included with the reduced service provision to women. Emphasises that safety is equally as important as accommodation and support. | en |
