Family and domestic violence

Submission to the Joint Select Committee on Australia’s Family Law System

Published on
1 December 2019

The Salvation Army feels compelled to provide evidence to this inquiry into Australia’s Family Law System. We provide extensive services to victim-survivors of family and domestic violence, helping more than 7,000 individuals each year. It is based on this experience, and the stories of the people we serve (predominantly women and children) that we make this submission.
