Preventing intimate partner violence against older women

Our Watch and Senior Rights Victoria have produced a new resource for practitioners seeking to build their knowledge and practice on preventing violence against older women.
The new booklet provides an opportunity to increase your understanding and knowledge of:
  • How intimate partner violence is experienced by older women
  • Gendered attitudes, practices and structures that drive this violence
  • Ageist attitudes, practices and structures that drive this violence
  • Improving primary prevention practice
  • Support services available
