Domestic abuse is a huge social problem in Aotearoa, and yet, it is a violence that is often hidden.
It is now every 4 minutes that Police attend to an incident of domestic violence.
One in three women in New Zealand experience physical and/or sexual abuse from a partner in their lifetime.
9 children are killed every year as a result of family violence.
And yet the nature of domestic abuse means that survivors are often reduced to faceless statistics rather than the courageous women and children that they are.
EASTERN WOMEN’S REFUGE DOES INCREDIBLE WORK
Working with women and children face to face, providing immediate help with a crisis line, emergency housing and safe houses. Providing ongoing support with safety programmes, advocacy, counselling, and community social work.
Empowering & enabling women and children to move on from domestic abuse.
Dedicated to cultivating violence free families and communities by enhancing the mana of all peoples and upholding the commitment to Te Tiriti O Waitangi.
