Project Five O is sponsoring a seminar aimed at empowering women who are living in threatening situations or are victims of abuse and who are seeking solutions to overcome their situation.
The Seminar will inform women of their rights, how they can leave, where to find shelter, how to secure funds, how to get legal assistance and how to motivate themselves to build up enough self-esteem so they do not feel it necessary to return to a damaging situation because they have learned it is possible to cope on their own. Speakers will include the Hon. Elizabeth Woods, Deputy Chief Magistrate, Dr Phil Watts, Forensic & Clinical Psychologist, Ms Diane Annear, Women’s Legal Referral Service 2005 and Ms Glynes Rynn, Southern Communities Advocacy Legal and Education Service.
