- Summary:
-
"The aim of the research is to explore how women leaving a domestic violence relationship could remain safely in their own homes with their children, with the violent partner being removed. This is the first study of its kind in NSW, and contributes to the growing national interest in this area of public policy ... The study was conducted over a 15-month period from October 2002 to December 2003. Twenty-nine women from South East Sydney, Western Sydney and the Far South Coast of New South Wales participated in face-to-face 'in depth' interviews. All the women had left a relationship involving domestic violence. Fourteen of the women were from Anglo-Australian backgrounds, nine from culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) backgrounds, five women were Aboriginal, and one woman was Maori."--Executive summary.
