Double Bay

At least one woman is killed every week in Australia at the hands of a current or former partner.

Domestic and family violence goes largely un-reported and, despite this under-reporting, statistics on DFV related incidents recorded by the NSW Bureau of Crime Statistics and Research show a 2.5% increase over the past five years.

The only way to stop the stigma and shame around domestic violence is to start the conversation. At Open Support we are working to raise awareness and reduce the stigma that surrounds domestic violence.
