Podcasts about family violence

A family violence support agency said police are undoing decades of hard work by not attending some domestic violence callouts that are considered mental-health related. Last year, police announced a phased approach to pulling back on mental-health related callouts, while still attending high risk incidents, in a bid to save their time and resources. Luka Forman has the story.

May is Domestic and Family Violence Prevention Month. And with 25% of those who come to The Separation Guide for help experiencing some sort of violence or abuse, it is a very real barrier to many trying to leave relationships. In this episode, White Ribbon Australia Acting Director Dean Cooper and Coordinator of Counselling Services Zoe Hughes join host Sabina Read to shed light on the many types of violence and abuse happening in Australian homes. With some practical tips for how to find help and navigate a safe path through, for both women and men, this episode is a vital resource for anyone who finds themselves - or someone they know - trapped in an abusive situation. It also discusses available help for potential perpetrators who may realise that their behaviour makes others feel unsafe, but don't know what steps to take to make a change. Along with a call out to society at large to take note and speak up when they witness acts of disrespect. As we learn in this episode - not all disrespect leads to violence, but all violence begins with disrespect. As the number of Australian women who have died at the hands of male violence reaches 24 so far this year, this is a vital conversation that needs to be had - and heard.For more information about how you can help make a change this Domestic and Family Violence Prevention Month, visit The Separation Guide's I Care About Conflict campaign at https://icareaboutconflict.com/

The Coalition have announced a $90 million investment in family and domestic violence, following Labor's $8.6 million commitment announced earlier this week.

But advocates and victim-survivors are disappointed by what they see as minimal attention from politicians on the issue over the election campaign.

Feeling trapped in limbo while waiting for your property settlement to go through? You're not alone — and there may be a way out. In this episode, I'm joined again by my mum, Lynette Galvin — a family lawyer with over 35 years of experience — and we're talking about a powerful but underused legal option called early distribution of funds. This is a game-changer for anyone financially stuck during separation. Whether you're separated under one roof, struggling to pay rent, or locked out of joint funds, this episode is full of practical ideas to help you understand some options. We'll walk through how it works, who it can help, how to ask for it, and what to do if you're facing financial abuse or coercive control. If even one person hears this and realizes they can ask for access to their own money — then this episode has done its job.

Last year, South Australia convened a Royal Commission into Family Violence amid concern about a spike in domestic violence related assaults and deaths across the country. It's estimated that in Australia, one woman is killed by an intimate partner every 11 days. And across Australia, just over 1 in 4 women experience partner violence or abuse, while for men it's 1 in 7. In this episode of the Too Hard Basket, we explore just what evidence the Royal Commission is uncovering about how public officials respond to this violence, and the effectiveness of the institutions meant to protect victims.

RNZ has learned that at least one police district and some courts are still referring violent offenders to Destiny Church's Man Up course. National Network of Family Violence services chief executive Merran Lawler spoke to Corin Dann.

Judge Patty Demos is a highly respected jurist here in Madison County, Alabama.  She has served on the bench for about a decade, after a long career as a prosecutor with the Madison County District Attorney's Office.  Her main focus during her prosecution time was in the area of child abuse where she ultimately directed the Family Violence and Sexual Assault unit for the DA's office.   She and her husband, Joe, have 4 boys who all wrestled in their youth and in high school.  In fact, that is how I first met her since my three boys all wrestled for a rival high school.  I enjoyed getting to catch up with Judge Demos on this episode of the podcast and I hope you enjoy getting to know her story here!

In this illuminating episode of the #SiblingsToo podcast, hosted by Nancy Morris, Anais Vanvliet returns to discuss her groundbreaking research on the experiences of non-abused, non-abuser siblings within families affected by child sexual abuse. Anais shares her passion for highlighting the often-overlooked impacts on these siblings, driven by her personal and professional commitment to the subject matter. Nancy and Anais delve into the critical need for more focused research and policy changes to address the gaps in support systems.   Diving deeper, Anais outlines her research's core questions, which explore both the experiences of these siblings and the current service provisions—or lack thereof—for them in Canada, particularly in Quebec and New Brunswick. She highlights the unique challenges and emotional impacts these siblings face, including feelings of isolation and jealousy, and the importance of trauma-informed approaches when engaging with them. Anais also touches on the broader conversation around sibling relationships in the context of family violence, emphasizing the need for comprehensive support systems and policy advocacy.   About our guest, Anais Vanvliet: Anais Vanvliet is a PhD candidate in the School of Social Work at McGill University, focusing on the experiences and support needs of siblings in households where child sexual abuse (CSA) has occurred. Anais brings a unique perspective to her research with her lived experience as a sibling of survivors and her professional background as a trained social worker in sexual violence. Her work aims to enhance awareness, policy, and support systems for siblings affected by family violence in Canada.     Key Takeaways:   *   The sibling dynamic in CSA-affected households is under-researched, leading to insufficient support for non-abused, non-abuser siblings. *   Anais aims to fill this research gap by focusing on these siblings' experiences and potential support needs. *   The impacts on these siblings can mirror those of the survivors, with additional unique challenges like feelings of exclusion. *   Current service provisions often overlook these siblings, highlighting a need for advocacy and policy changes. *   Anais's research seeks to provide data-driven insights to improve awareness and service provision for siblings affected by CSA and family violence.   Notable Quotes:   1.  "All siblings in the household can be deeply impacted by sibling sexual abuse or child sexual abuse generally, even if they're not directly involved." 2.  "There's really no research or very, very, very little on the experiences of siblings surrounding child sexual abuse in a family." 3.  "My work hopefully will help to kind of fill those gaps." 4.  "If someone is missing in the conversation, the conversation is missing." 5.  "The timing is right to do this work because in Canada, we are slowly starting to pay closer attention to siblings in the context of family violence."   Resources:   *   Contact Anais Vanvliet via email anais.cadieuxvanvliet@mcgill.ca for participants interested in her research. *   Mention of the scoping review by Peter Yates and Amy Adams on sibling sexual abuse -https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0145213424004666   Explore the full episode to gain an in-depth understanding of the dynamics of sibling relationships in CSA-affected households and to learn more about the vital research being conducted by Anais Vanvliet.

Kimberly Esparza was walking home with her husband after watching a football game at a bar Sunday night when she was hit by a car and killed. The driver left the scene, and Esparza, a 32-year-old mother of two, died on the street. More than 12 years after her death, Esparza's oldest daughter is trying to get to the bottom of what happened. She not only wants the driver to come forward, but she also questions the police report that her mother lay down on the road before she was hit. The daughter claims there is evidence casting doubt on the narrative given by the sole witness to the deadly hit-and-run. This is still an open investigation. If you have information on the hit-and-run that killed Kimberly Esparza on Nov. 7, 2011, call Crime Stoppers at (915) 566-8477. If you are in an abusive relationship, call the Center Against Sexual and Family Violence at (915) 593-7300. The YWCA also offers the Transitional Living Center for women in need of emergency shelter. They can be reached at (915) 519-0000.
