The aim of this study is to provide an evaluation of Viviana's advocacy services to the community of Waitakere from the perspective of past clients whose experiences of male violence have come before the Waitakere Family Violence Court (WFVC). This is the sixth study in a programme of research evaluating the collaborative criminal justice intervention at Waitakere and the second project to include the perspectives of women victims. The researchers are particularly interested in how Viviana's advocacy affects safety outcomes for women victims and their families. (from the Introduction to the executive summary). Record #3580
