  • Click Here For Information on Safety Exit Planning

    Leaving a domestic abuse relationship or environment requires you to have a safe exit plan. This means planning a way to leave that is safest for you and your family.

    The organisation Full Stop Australia has clear, helpful information on this.

    Safety planning is thinking about how to increase safety now and in the future. Anyone concerned about violence or controlling behaviour from a partner, ex-partner or other relationship should consider safety planning.

    Safety plans need to include children and pets and it is ideal to work with a support service to prepare a safety plan.

    Some people also make safety plans for their friends and family members.
