Fact Sheet - Divorce and Family Violence
This fact sheet provides information on family violence.
Family violence occurs when a person abuses someone in their family. It can happen to anyone - both children and adults.
Family violence can be words, acts or even not giving someone the care they need. It may be a single incident, or a recurring pattern of behaviour.
Family violence can also happen before, during or after a couple separates. People are often at higher risk of family violence soon after a separation.
