N1  - Part One: Introduction and methods; Part Two: Literature review to inform the design and implementation of peer support services; Part Three: Peer support: the voices, opinions and views of men as former family violence perpetrators, women as survivors of family violence and professionals working in the domestic violence sector - findings from the consultations
N2  - The Christchurch Women’s Refuge commissioned the Te Awatea Violence Research Centre, University of Canterbury, to assemble an evidence-base to inform the design, development and implementation of systematic models of specialist peer
support respectively for men and women with ‘lived experience’ of family/whānau violence. Multiple and varied experiences and perspectives were sought during the preparation of the ‘Peer Support: Reframing the Journey from Lived Experience of
Domestic Violence’ report, including contributions from individuals with ‘lived experience’ of family violence, individuals working within New Zealand’s Domestic Violence sector and individuals with expertise in delivering peer support projects.
Some thirty individuals participated in focus groups and interviews and shared their experiences, views and opinions about peer support within the domestic violence context. Together with those consulted, a review of the New Zealand and
international research, government policy, evaluation reports and the ‘grey’ literature was undertaken. The purpose of this report is to describe the lessons learnt from the various secondary data sources and people and to aid the creation of a systematic model of peer support and a peer support specialist training programme appropriate to a domestic violence setting in Canterbury, New Zealand.
