Abstract
AbstractHistorically, there has been limited attention paid to the support needs of the domestic and family violence workforce beyond a general emphasis on self-care in social work training. Drawing on an Australian case study, this chapter examines why the COVID-19 pandemic has sharply highlighted the need to pay attention to the wellbeing of those specialist practitioners working remotely to support women experiencing DFV during stay-at-home restrictions.
