21 Domestic Violence Response Team Significant gap in service delivery for women with or without children escaping DFV and accommodated in TA. TA provides immediate accommodation but offers no practical and/or moral support. Stress of being isolated in motel/hotel or caravan accommodation adds further trauma.

22 DFV Response Team reach the most vulnerable and marginalised women and children. Negotiations with local Community Housing Providers to head lease suitable properties for TA use: 2 Gosford and 2 Wyong. TA workers undertake immediate risk and safety assessments within 24 hours.
