Aims and Principles1. To provide a co-ordinated response to people affected by domestic violence in Wynnum, with a specific focus on co-
ordination across the justice system.
2. To trial and evaluate a model of a co-ordinated community response which:
• informs the local community about the issue of domestic violence and encourages community involvement in responding to the issue;
• co-ordinates relevant social services and the justice system agencies within the local community;
• demonstrates a model of appropriate justice system responses to the aggrieved and to the respondent;
• promotes the utilisation of existing criminal law to respond appropriately to criminal violence in a domestic context;
• demonstrates the utilisation of the breach provisions of the Domestic Violence Act;
• advocates accountability to the aggrieved at every stage of intervention;
• demonstrates that those who perpetrate the violence accept responsibility for their behaviour;
• demonstrates a model of intervention which is empowering for the aggrieved;
• can be implemented in other communities;
• provides a basis for further policy and program development by state and local government and the community;
• includes culturally appropriate responses to domestic violence

Principles1 Domestic violence needs to be understood in the political, social, cultural and
economic structures and conditions that create unequal power between men and women.
2 Domestic violence is about the abuse of unequal power and control.
3 Safety of the victim is essential in all procedures.
4 It is recognised that domestic violence has a number of contributing factors, but that violence is ultimately a choice. Perpetrators are responsible for the violence.
5 There must be consistency of response from all agencies / departments who intersect with the parties and this will be reflected in the protocols.
6 The project needs to ensure that all key stakeholders from the diverse parts of the community are included. The stakeholders are those who are involved in the development and management of the project and on whom the project impacts.
7 Accountability is required at all levels.
8 Appropriate responses are to be devised for perpetrators of abuse.
9 Acts of domestic violence that constitute a criminal offence should be dealt with as a criminal offence.
10 Evaluation needs to be in place. Ongoing review will ensure flexibility.

about the process”.

The Police advised about safe practices such as taping phone calls [evidence for
breaches to Protection Orders] and what to do when arriving home”

“Could we change our attitude, we should not only see life differently,
but life itself would come to be different. Life would undergo a
change of appearance because we ourselves had undergone a change
of attitude.
By working together, supporting people, providing information I believe that attitudes can be influenced to create a safer environment for women and
children.
