INTERVIEW: Domestic Violence Crisis Service CEO Sue Webeck

The almost $1 billion commitment by the Albanese government in response to the national crisis of gender-based violence may not be enough to support women fleeing domestic violence. Those eligible for the Fleeing Violence Program will be able to access $5,000 in support, with $1,500 paid in cash and $3,500 made up of goods and services, and will be available from July next year. Rania Yallop spoke to CEO of the Canberra-based Domestic Violence Crisis Service, Sue Webeck, about the challenges support services are facing.
