Ang Jury: Women's Refuge CEO on the increasing number of family harm incidents

The number of family harm incidents is continuing to rise, with authorities concerned about a potential summer spike.  The numbers over the past decade have almost doubled, with about 200,000 reports over 2023.    Women's Refuge Chief Executive Ang Jury told Tim Dower that violence tends to increase around Christmas and New Years, as more people are home and spending lots money to try make the period special.   She says people also party a lot, and while none of these things cause family violence, they provide a perfect environment for it.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
