Fifty-three women from diverse backgrounds and with an age range of 23 to 63 years were interviewed using a qualitative research approach. The study documented the varied acts of resistance used by these women and then the turning points which enabled them ultimately to leave their partners. Patton describes the process of leaving as characterised by five phases and concludes that, while various pathways are chosen, it is the formal supports from specialised domestic violence services in particular which are the most significant in helping women. Both pathways and barriers are examined in respect to services, structural resources, friends and family, and ideas and beliefs. The report makes specific recommendations to the Tasmanian and Commonwealth governments, the Family Court, hospitals and other health facilities, and women’s services, for improvements to both the formal and informal supports available to women who are seeking to leave.en
