Intimate partner violence is the GREATEST HEALTH RISK FACTOR (greater than smoking, alcohol & obesity) for women aged 25–44.
Almost 10 women a day are hospitalised for assault injuries perpetrated by a spouse or domestic partner.
In a recent report on male-perpetrated intimate partner homicide, 54 per cent of offenders reported a history of trauma.
An estimated 2.2 million Australians (12% of the population) reported experiences of sexual violence (threat and/or assault) since the age of 15.
Statistics: 1: Ayre et al, 2016. 2: Australian Institute of Health and Welfare (AIHW). 20193: Boxall et al., 2022. 4: Australian Institute of Health and Welfare.
How can we provide universal education, public messaging around the supports available and steps to take when a community member experiences domestic abuse, family or sexual violence or coercive control?
What are the steps necessary in developing professional and cultural competency for all mental and allied health workers to provide the necessary support to victims in times of need?
Where are the resources available to the community which make up the ongoing response to family and domestic violence?
Together we will review the plans around prevention, intervention, response and recovery of family, domestic and sexual violence sector to create a brighter, safer future.
