What is Domestic Violence?
According to the Domestic Violence Act No. 116 of 1998 it is: any form of abuse which includes physical, sexual, emotional, psychological or economic harassment, damage to property, stalking, entry into a person's property without their consent, any other abusive or controlling behaviour where such a conduct causes harm or may cause harm to your health, safety, or well being. If these forms of abuse are happening to you or to anyone you know, you can apply for a protection order. A domestic violence protection order is a document issued by the court which prevents the abuser from: committing an act of domestic violence enlisting the help of another person to commit any such act entering a residence shared by the complainant and the respondent entering a specified part of such a shared residence entering the complainant’s residence entering the complainant’s place of employment preventing the complainant who ordinarily lives or lived in a shared residence from entering or remaining in the shared residence or a specified part of the shared residence or committing any other act as specified in the protection order. Gender Based Violence Command Centre The Centre employs 48 Social Work Agents, 8 Social Work Supervisors, 4 Quality Assurers and 1 Centre Manager, to operate and offer services to victims of Gender Based Violence. As support to the GBVCC telephonic trauma counselling, the Department of Social Development has conceived and launched a National Emergency Response Team (NERT) to pilot a national rapid response approach to provision of psychosocial services following incidents of trauma.
