How can I help?

Annual Report 2021
The Family & Domestic Violence Legal Health Check

Women experiencing family and domestic violence report an average of 20 different legal problems, which can greatly impact on their social and physical wellbeing. The Legal Health Check, designed for family and domestic violence situations, is a simple tool for community workers. The tool helps them ask the right questions to identify legal issues and all the legal services the individual might need, to guide the right referral pathway for the client to receive legal help.
