520 _aThis report is part of a wider project that Women’s Refuge is carrying out with the generous support of Contact Energy. This project aims to build on knowledge about the risks and impacts associated with intimate partner violence. In December 2024, the Women’s Refuge1 research team conducted research into the impacts of IPV on victims and their experiences of help seeking. We heard from 1707 women and non-binary victims. While most reported that they were no longer experiencing violence, 21 percent (375) reported that it was ongoing. The majority (1328) had been physically assaulted by their partners, 10 percent (138) of whom reported having a (known) TBI caused by their partners’ use of violence. Given IPV- inflicted TBI is often undiagnosed, the actual prevalence amongst this sample is likely far higher. This research offer insight into how the conditions of IPV complicate TBI recovery, and how the symptoms of TBI complicate pathways to safety from IPV. They show how victims’ needs for safety and support can be better met by considering IPV and TBI in tandem. (From the report). Record #9177
