Non-Fatal Strangulation Webinar

Non-Fatal Strangulation Webinar

On 13 November 2019, WAFLPN hosted a webinar on non-fatal strangulation (NFS) with Dr Maureen Philips and Kedy Kristal from the Women’s Council for Domestic and Family Violence Services (WA). This webinar was also streamed at a twilight networking event in Albany.

Non-fatal strangulation in family and domestic violence – what’s happening?
What do we know about NFS, how does it happen and what are the consequences? This webinar will cover some of the latest information from WA, national and international research. You will become aware of the risks for women and children and links to long-term outcomes including homicide. Understanding the NFS problem is now changing the way services are provided and legislation is being shaped.
