The Survivor’s Handbook
The Survivor’s Handbook provides practical support and information for women experiencing domestic abuse, with simple guidance on every aspect of seeking support.
The terms “victim” and “survivor” are both used, depending on the context. “Survivor” is, however, preferred as it emphasises an active, resourceful and creative response to the abuse, in contrast to “victim”, which implies passive acceptance.
If you are reading this, then you are – at least to some extent – a survivor.
This handbook is primarily addressed to women for the following reasons:
The majority of domestic abuse as defined by Women’s Aid is perpetrated by men and experienced by women.
Women’s Aid’s information and support services exist to respond to the needs of women and children
