dc.description.notesThis report evaluates the impact of safety planning on women who experience domestic violence and the current problems to address domestic and family violence in Victoria. The study focuses on the performance of WIRE -- Women's Information Referral Exchange, an information, support and referral service for women. A literature review of safety planning for women, and twenty interviews with practitioners from the police, health, academic and domestic violence fields provided most of the information for the analysis. It was found that even though WIRE is already operating a safety-planning framework, it is necessary to institutionalise it. Some of the problems identified in current response to family violence were: need for magistrates' awareness and training; lack of sufficient options for housing and accommodation; absence of culturally-appropriate services, insensitive policies to victims; and the need for community education. Recommendations for WIRE to design a safety planning framework and to develop strategies in its advocacy role to the Victorian Government are suggested.en
