Our research

Violence against women and children affects everybody. It impacts on the health, wellbeing and safety of a significant proportion of Australians throughout all states and territories and places an enormous burden on the nation’s economy across family and community services, health and hospitals, income-support and criminal justice systems.

RESEARCH REPORT

The PIPA project: Positive Interventions for Perpetrators of Adolescent violence in the home (AVITH)

This report contributes to an understanding of adolescent violence in the home (AVITH) and explores the development of a considered systemic response.

The PIPA project aims to improve evidence regarding:

  • legal responses to AVITH as it presents in different justice and service contexts
  • the co-occurrence of AVITH with other issues and juvenile offending
  • current responses and gaps in service delivery.

The report contains specific policy and practice recommendations to support improvement across the three legislative and service contexts.
