| Notes: | Documents and explores the observations of two practitioners involved with a female domestic violence survivors’ support group, tracing the women’s journey from first contact with the service to active participation and the development of trust in the group. The concept of social capital is used to explain the value of extra-familial social networks and it is suggested that domestic violence support groups provide an important source of such networks for survivors and victims. |
