Description
This report advocates for a long-term model of care for survivors of sexual violence.
The Australian Government has shown a strong commitment to the prevention of violence against women.
The recommendations presented in this paper seek to address a gap in the national agenda relating to the long-term healthcare needs of the one in three Australian women who are survivors of sexual violence.
The establishment of a multidisciplinary foundation or centre of excellence (including referral pathways to strengthen access to care) is critical to drive the recommendations in this report forward.
