dc.description.notesThis research discusses available and potential methods to protect women who experience family violence. In particular, issues related to Apprehended Violence Orders (ADVO) required by Aboriginal women in inland rural and remote New South Wales towns. Aboriginal women who have experienced family violence and service practitioners from Wagga Wagga, Dubbo and Bourke comprised the focus groups that provided the information. The report is divided into six sections. The first two sections include legal responses to domestic and family violence in NSW, profiles of the three towns selected, and local data on the use of ADVOs and violent crime incidence. Family violence facts, myths, fears and safety are addressed in Section Three. The next section considers the factors that discourage women’s seeking assistance, the strengths and weaknesses of the services, and suggestions to improve and obtain support. Section Five refers to the civil and criminal responses and to the limitations found by Aboriginal women in accessing these legal protections. Finally, participants’ opinions and proposals to prevent and respond to family violence in their towns are summarised in Section Six.en
