| dc.description.notes | <p>Protection orders are an important legal instrument for supporting the safety of women and children experiencing family and domestic violence. However, they are not always effective for stopping or containing a perpetrator’s use of violence. Data from police and the courts and feedback from victims and service providers demonstrates that some perpetrators of domestic violence continually breach their protection orders through continued abuse, harassment and violence towards the person/s protected. This small exploratory study sought to identify and investigate breaches of protection order from the perspectives of the perpetrators in particular, men who use violence in an intimate or family relationship, who have been bound by a protection order/s and breached the order/s. Specifically, the study aimed to: • gain an understanding of men’s perspectives and experiences about being charged with breaching a protection order; • document men’s understandings of why the protection order was put in place and what events led to them being charged with a breach, the consequences of them being charged and the assistance that would have been of most use to them; and • identify implications for improving policy and service delivery which could promote safety of victims in the future.</p> | en |
