On average, one woman a week is murdered by her current or former partner.
In the year 2021/22, 5606 women (average of 15 women/day) were hospitalised due to family and domestic violence. 1 in 4 women (27%) has experienced violence, emotional abuse, or economic abuse by a cohabitating partner since the age of 15.
This epidemic is not going away anytime soon 🔜 However by speaking up about DV and show more support and empathy for victims we can slow it down and one day, hopefully, have a DFV free country 🇦🇺
