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. Provincial DSD takes over after the initial three-day rapid response.
