Amanda Rishworth is the federal Social Services Minister. Two years ago her department released an ambitious strategy to end domestic violence against women and their children in a generation. Recently, the Albanese government commissioned a rapid review with practical advice on further action to prevent gender-based violence.

Is all of this enough to curb the distressing increase in domestic violence homicides we’ve seen in 2024? Join There’s No Place Like Home's Executive Producer Sally Spicer for a special bonus episode on what that rapid review has dubbed a national emergency.

This is the story that starts where others end. After the headlines fade. After the crisis hotline call ends. After you walk out of the shelter doors. When survivors face the brutal, yet hope-filled work of rebuilding from scratch.

We know that leaving an abusive relationship can cost everything. Your home. Your money. Your job. Your kids. Your health. The life you thought you'd have. Putting the pieces back together can take years, sometimes a lifetime. And what comes next is rarely discussed, poorly understood and absolutely critical. 

Recovering from domestic abuse and family violence. It’s not just about surviving, but thriving.

There's No Place Like Home: Paths to Healing reveals the innovative programs across Australia looking beyond the immediate crisis. This season, meet the mother rediscovering joy with her children after their perpetrator robbed them of it for years, the survivor turning her pain into a career to help others escape and the local heroes building safe houses to create spaces where women can finally experience "this huge sense of freedom”. 

For the first time, watch these powerful discussions on video or listen as audio. Hosted by Sally Spicer and available wherever you get your podcasts. Made possible with support from CommBank Next Chapter.
