National Domestic Violence Remembrance Day


David SOUTHWICK

National Domestic Violence Remembrance Day

David SOUTHWICK (Caulfield) (09:43): Today is National Domestic Violence Remembrance Day. On average almost 10 women in Australia are hospitalised or assaulted due to domestic violence from a partner. One woman a week is murdered by a current or former partner. I want to recognise the work that Impact for Women does in our community supporting those women that are dealing with family violence. As a patron along with the member for Albert Park, we really recognise and value of the work that Kathy Kaplan and the team do packing bags of love to support our women.
