Domestic & Family Violence
GIVIT
35-year-old woman. She recently escaped Domestic Violence. She suffered 2 miscarriages from the violence from her ex-husband and family who tried to trap her in India and stop her from returning to Australia. She just received social housing. She is currently trying to rebuild her life by taking English lessons and looking to start up work again to regain her confidence and self-esteem. She worked in the health industry back in India and is doing the study needed in Australia to be able to do this work again. She really wants to work as this gave her a sense of purpose and agency. She is struggling financially to have the basic needs. She is currently on a DV payment from Centrelink, so money is very stretched. Currently she is suffering severely low iron and is unable to afford an iron infusion. She is a vegetarian and most food bank don't cater for her dietary needs. She is struggling to have enough food to eat. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
