dc.description.notes"AUGUST 1998. Reprinted May 1999. Reprinted June 2003."<br/ >This report presents the findings of an Australian study which aimed to ascertain the reasons why the majority of women who experience domestic violence do not use domestic violence and related crisis services or contact the police; what actions they take in response to domestic violence; their needs; and what would best meet their needs. The study was essentially qualitative in nature, primarily focussing in depth on women's experiences of 'coping' and 'dealing' with domestic violence. The women's stories highlight the complexity of domestic violence, the wide disparity in the women's circumstances and needs, and the variation in their patterns of disclosure, help-seeking and survival strategies. The study concludes by suggesting a number of future directions for domestic violence policy and delivery of services.en
