Are you afraid of your partner? This is a sign of Domestic Violence.

The Safe Relationships Project can assist clients in accessing legal representation and to apply for Apprehended Domestic Violence Orders (ADVO) or Apprehended Personal Violence Orders (APVO) to help put an end to the violence they are experiencing.
This is available to ensure that a person’s right to safety is protected through the legal process no matter what their sexual orientation is.
We are located at the Inner City Legal Centre in Kings Cross and have outreach services at some Local Courts across Sydney. We can also provide telephone support to people living outside of Sydney.
