| Annotation | Domestic violence can be physical, psychological, emotional, sexual or financial. This report provides concise guidelines to those practitioners who work directly with female victims of domestic violence. The role of these specialist practitioners is to provide information, advice and support to enable women (and their children) to access a range of legal and non-legal resources and services that ultimately leads towards violence-free lives. The report draws on the independent evaluation of a number of multi-agency projects, which aimed to support female victims of domestic violence, and which were funded under the remit of the Home Office's Crime Reduction Programme (CRP) Violence Against Women Initiative (VAWI). (RH). |
