dc.description.notes"A kit for Women's Domestic Violence Court Assistance Scheme workers"<br/ >Aimed at assisting Women's Domestic Violence Court Assistance Scheme (WDVCA) workers to enhance service provision to women with an intellectual disability, this kit was compiled through consultation with WDVCAS coordinators and allied professionals and contains practical information relating to assisting women with an intellectual disability through the court system as well as handouts and contact information for community agencies. Part One provides a background to the nature and extent of violence against women with an intellectual disability, some tips for recognising clients with an intellectual disability, and an overview of the legal rights and particular issues facing this group. Part Two utilises case studies to illustrate how workers might deal more effectively with women who have an intellectual disability and are experiencing domestic violence, and presents a best practice model for individual and group advocacy. An overview of relevant legislation and administrative proceedings for AVOs is also provided. Part Three outlines strategies for promoting your service to people with an intellectual disability and to allied services in the community. A listing of advocacy, referral and support services is provided in Part Four.en
