Women’s Domestic Violence Court Advocacy Service (WDVCAS)
Women experiencing domestic and family violence are entitled to protection under the law. However, it can be a daunting process to appear in Court in the presence of the person who has caused you to be fearful.
WDVCAS provides support, advocacy, referrals and information for women experiencing domestic violence. We help women and their children with information about domestic and family violence, and how to get protection from the court. We see clients before, during, and after court.
This service covers the Upper and Lower North Shore of Sydney and the Northern Beaches. If women have a domestic violence case going to court, we can assist them at Hornsby and Manly Courts.
We also refer women and their families to other services, as required.
