| dc.description.notes | This study from Victoria looks at the experiences of women who live in situations of domestic and family violence and examines their relationships to a number of different social services. It primarily focuses on the assistance that services provide and their effectiveness when dealing with domestic and family violence situations. This research aims to contribute to the knowledge base of health, social welfare, legal and policy services which respond to women faced with family violence. The study showed that services do not always respond effectively to cases of family violence as they are often under-resourced, under-funded and ill-equipped to deal with the complexities of violence. The research further suggested that services were commonly hard to access and many women were finding it difficult to attain any kind of assistance at all. As a result of these findings, the study suggested six key areas of change that could improve service systems: a need for clear management when working with victims/survivors; ongoing training and education of professionals in the field; increased use of protocols; a need to change and diversify models of women's refuges; a need to increase public counselling services; and finally, a need for ongoing community education campaigns about the nature of family violence, its effects and services available. | en |
