The Shadow Pandemic

COVID-19 has opened up more discussion about the shadow pandemic, family and domestic violence.

Disasters, such as the current pandemic, have highlighted inequalities and barriers to access within the community. COVID-19 has not caused an influx in family violence cases, rather it has isolated people in already vulnerable situations. This can make an already dangerous situation, worse.

With restrictions in the community slowly lifting, those facing family violence now have more opportunities to reach out for help. Now is your time to make a strong impact on the thousands of community members experiencing family violence. Your donation will directly impact services and resources that support and build-up victims.
