"This paper presents the views and experiences of local Aboriginal community members and program staff and some non-Indigenous community-based service providers of 'Family Support Package' programs in five remote Aboriginal communities in the Northern Territory. Three program elements make up the package: Safe Places for men and women; Mobile Child Protection Teams; and Remote Aboriginal Family and Community Workers. The Family Support Package aims to provide a coordinated response to Indigenous family violence and protect Indigenous children and families from abuse and violence." -- Taken from p. ii.
