Since 2012 Protective Group has been providing solutions to keep vulnerable people safe across Australia.

The Impact of COVID-19 on Families

For some people, home is not the safest place. Self-isolation and increased stress during COVID-19 will likely see an increase in domestic violence incidents. Research has found that there is often a spike in violence against women in particular during disasters, which have similar features to the current COVID-19 crisis.

Protective factors like jobs, kids being in school and contact with friends and family all but disappear when a country is in lockdown or implementing social distancing policies. Previous events, like earthquakes, have proven that support services are needed more - not less - during major disruptive change. Therefore, for people in abusive homes, finding remote support and a way to safely communicate with others is critical.

Key Features

These range from enabling calls for help in a crisis when they can’t reach their phone to sharing accurate information that can be recorded and verified in real-time.
