Family Violence.
Family violence is a crime.
It is not a private matter.
People in violent relationships often cannot help themselves. They need your help.
The law says that 'domestic violence' can be physical, sexual or psychological.
• Nobody has the right to assault another person.
• Nobody is allowed to have sexual contact with another person without permission.
• Nobody has the right to use intimidation, threats or mind games to gain power over another person.
If you are a victim of family violence or in a relationship that makes you fearful about your own or anyone else's safety, seek help as soon as possible.
You have the right to be safe.
If you are a friend or acquaintance of a victim of family violence,
you can help by listening and being supportive,
ensuring the person and any children are safe and finding out what help is available in the community.
If you are a friend or acquaintance of a violent person, you can help by telling them it is not OK and assisting them to find help.
