    Violence at home

    If you’ve been affected by violence in a relationship, it’s important to know that it’s not your fault and it’s never acceptable. You have the right to feel safe, respected and supported in your relationships.

    Who can help me in the NT?

    • Remote Health Service

      If you live in a community without access to a GP clinic, you'll most likely have a health service in or near your community. This local service can support your health needs and may have Aboriginal health workers and nurses who can help you find the right support.
