What is Family /domestic/ Violence?



Abuse by a family member to others in the family. This includes:
  • physical
  • psychological
  • sexual
  • financial
This abuse hurts people or causes them to feel afraid. All types of relationships can be abusive. These include:
  • young people
  • older couples
  • people with disabilities and their carers
  • same sex relationships
  • heterosexual relationships
  • parents abused by children of all ages.
All types of violence are harmful. Physical and sexual violence is against the law.

IF YOU ARE BEING ABUSED, NEVER BELIEVE THE VIOLENCE IS YOUR FAULT.
