Nov. 8, 2024 – We discussed how women escaping domestic violence often turn to alcohol or drugs to cope with their immense psychological trauma. However, most women’s shelters in Australia can’t accept residents using substances due to a lack of clinical support … This leaves women with an impossible choice: remain in an unsafe environment or face homelessness without adequate support.
Stigma was another key theme throughout the day. All women struggling with addiction, and particularly mothers and expectant mothers, face intense stigma and fear, often worried about losing custody of their children and feeling ashamed of their struggle. Women typically access treatment at lower rates than men and are more likely to hide their drinking from their families.
