🚨 Women across the #NorthernTerritory are waiting too long for life-changing #FinancialCounselling. Our @cawls_nt FC helps women escape violence & rebuild — but one person can't do it all.

We need sustainable funding... we can't afford to wait ❌

🚨 #Budget25 drops tonight - will #womenssafety be a priority? The cost of living crisis fuels #familyviolence, with financial stress driving more women to seek legal support. But demand is outpacing funding.

Another woman’s life has been stolen.
Another family broken.

💔 Her death is a painful reminder of the violence that has been allowed to persist — violence that was known but not stopped. It’s heartbreaking, it’s infuriating & it’s unacceptable ❌
