Devon Domestic Abuse Code of Good Practice

The Devon Homelessness Managers Group have worked closely with partners across Devon, Plymouth and Torbay to develop a county wide code of good practice for victims of domestic abuse who are homeless or threatened with homelessness.

The driver for the development of the document came out of the ADVA Survivors Conference Report "Raising the Survivor Voice in Devon" in November 2005.

The final code was launched during the Regional Domestic Abuse Awareness Week beginning 20th November 2006 and is available for download below.
