UnitingCare Community is urging all Queenslanders to speak out against domestic violence this month and to take time to reflect on Domestic and Family Violence Awareness Month.<\/p>\n

South Burnett Program Manager Sarah Franciosa-Jones said the issue of domestic and family violence required a whole of community response. <\/p>\n

\u201cThis month, I urge all Queenslanders to voice their intolerance of domestic violence,\u201d Ms Franciosa-Jones said.<\/p>\n

\u201cDomestic violence is isolating \u2013 it is likely that most people will have friends or family members who are suffering from these experiences without realising it.<\/p>\n

\u201cTake the time to reach out to people you are concerned about and show you are there to listen without judgment. It can be difficult to know how to provide support but there are a range of services available.\u201d<\/p>\n

UnitingCare Community offers information, support, counselling and assistance with safety planning to support people who have experienced violence and abuse. <\/p>\n

Dedicated domestic and family violence services are located across Queensland including Kingaroy, Cherbourg and Gympie.
\n<\/strong>
\n\u201cNo one should have to live in daily fear in their own home and UnitingCare Community offers sufferers of domestic and family violence a much-needed lifeline through the provision of refuges and safe houses for women and children, transitional housing and domestic violence outreach services,\u201d Ms Franciosa-Jones said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe acute demand for these services reminds us of the need to end domestic and family violence in our communities so that no more lives are lost.<\/p>\n

\u201cI encourage victims and their loved ones to reach out for 24-hour crisis support by calling DV Connect Womensline on 1800-811-811 or the Mensline on 1800-600-636.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you are in immediate danger, please call 000 for help.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
