520 _aThis article examines how practitioners and organisations can provide effective, culturally responsive services to those experiencing family violence. The author emphasises that culture is more than ethnicity and encompasses personal identification to varying degrees with multiple social categories, including (but not limited to) ethnicity, gender, sexuality and age. The centrality of culture in social work practice is demonstrated by the support received from a number of national and international codes and conventions. The author expands this argument to encompass relationships between families where violence occurs and community response systems and interventions, arguing that practical organisational issues have had an adverse effect on social work practice in this area. The author argues that, to eliminate family violence in New Zealand's culturally diverse context, service delivery systems must be culturally responsive at each of the three levels of practitioner, agency and community.
