In 2021, as part of the Hume Family Violence Peer Education Project, 12 women from diverse cultural backgrounds worked with local filmmakers to make a short video empowering women in abusive relationships to seek help. The Take the First Step campaign seeks to enhance the impact of this video by encouraging newly arrived women who are at risk of, or experiencing family violence to visit NCLC’s website where they will find clear, dedicated information about their rights in Australia and how to make an appointment to see a lawyer. These resources are available in English and in Arabic here.
