dc.description.notesAngela O’Brien, a case co-coordinator for the Housing Resource and Support Service in Victoria, gives us an account of the challenges facing a disabled woman living independently in Australia today. She describes difficulties which such women face in the areas of housing, transport and social service delivery in general. In particular she discusses the issue of partner violence, using anecdotal evidence supported by figures from the Housing Resource and Support Service. Paradoxically, while disabled women appear to be more vulnerable to domestic violence, they have the advantage of being seen regularly by attendant carers and O’Brien concludes that these service providers can and should take on the responsibility to make a difference in the situation of a disabled woman in a violent family situation..en
