Over the weekend the FNQ Greens joined forces with the community here in Gimuy, Cairns to demand an end to domestic, family, and sexual violence against women at the What Were You Wearing? rally.
We heard from some passionate speakers who highlighted alarming statistics regarding the vulnerability faced by rural, remote, and Indigenous communities. As well as how the services needed to support victim survivors are either stretched to the limit or simply not there within these regions.
Clearly there is work still to be done to bridge these gaps in funding, and to end domestic, family, and sexual violence.
The Greens have a comprehensive plan to address this national crisis, which guarantees women and children have fully funded support services to turn to, as well as prevention work to ensure that future generations are not subjected to the same violence.
Together we must end domestic, family, and sexual violence against women!
