Are you living in a Respectful Relationship?

A new fact sheet about non-physical abuse has been produced by the Queensland Centre for Domestic and Family Violence Research following its research on intimate partner abuse in the Bowen Basin and Mackay region of Central Queensland.  This fact sheet provides women with the opportunity to self assess their relationship; it affirms that non-physical abuse has serious effects and that women experiencing such abuse should seek help. The fact sheet is specifically designed for distribution in the Bowen Basin/Mackay region and features information about relevant services in the region. There is also an adapted version for state-wide distribution, which provides information about support services across Queensland.
