@ANROWS has published research which explores how we might begin to improve the recognition and understanding of LGBTQ intimate partner violence among both mainstream and domestic and family violence service providers, and within #LGBTQ communities. https://buff.ly/2AsDUSF
Today is Australia’s 1st LGBTI Domestic Violence Awareness Day.
The “heterosexual face” of DFV can mask its presence in #LGBTQ relationships. It’s important that mainstream service providers increase capacity to recognise the unique dynamics of LGBTQ DV.

"All women interviewed for the study had been extensively victimised, however no woman reported that the full extent of her victimisation had been prosecuted in the criminal justice system" | @mike_salter et al in new @ANROWS research on complex trauma: https://bit.ly/3d4lplW.
"Complex trauma overlaps with frameworks on #violenceagainstwomen & #mentalhealth. However, the impact of complex trauma is not comprehensively addressed by these fwks, which contributes to the fragmented response to women in distress." This
report incl rec for policy & practice. https://twitter.com/ANROWS/status/1265440526976704512
"The women we interviewed told us that #complextrauma is impacting every aspect of their lives: mental health, physical health, relationships, safety, financial security." A/Prof @mike_salter on new ANROWS research w @UNSW @westernsydneyu & @Griffith_Uni:

Our @ANROWS research report on complex trauma is out! Thank you so much to all the survivors and professionals (and survivor-professionals) who were interviewed for this study, and all the services who helped with recruitment https://www.anrows.org.au/publication/a-deep-wound-under-my-heart-constructions-of-complex-trauma-and-implications-for-womens-wellbeing-and-safety-from-violence/
"When you use the word illness, you’re saying that I’m sick. I’m not sick. I have a set of symptoms as a result of what was done to me. I’m not sick.” Great new research into #complextrauma by @mike_salter published by @ANROWS this morning: https://www.anrows.org.au/project/constructions-of-complex-trauma-and-implications-for-womens-wellbeing-and-safety-from-violence/
New ANROWS research led by @mike_salter shows that while health professionals favour a psychological understanding of #complextrauma, women with experiences of complex trauma emphasise bodily and relational aspects: https://www.anrows.org.au/publication/a-deep-wound-under-my-heart-constructions-of-complex-trauma-and-implications-for-womens-wellbeing-and-safety-from-violence/
