Accompaniment of persons in the context of domestic and intra-family violence

The Association Réseau VIF is experimenting with a new answer to make a diagnosis of the violence suffered and acted in terms of health, maritality, parenthood, and therefore impact on social life. This assessment makes it possible to include a woman victim of domestic violence in a pathway of social reintegration first, professional if necessary eventually. The aim is to improve care, combat recidivism and reproduction through a comprehensive and multidisciplinary approach to support women victims of domestic violence, according to Grand Danger criteria. The **experimental and innovative dimension** is based on a new approach to the care of women according to 3 axes: \- by engaging in work with the family: care of **spouse/ex spouse**, to thwart the mechanism of the cycle of violence on the one hand or even children on the other, \- care that incorporates the **graduation of danger**; \- a ** multidisciplinary accompaniment** adapted to the situation that takes account of all aspects. **The action covers multidisciplinary support for women and families with violent transactions,** aimed at providing comprehensive care for Intra-Family Violence in Reunion, as part of an integrated path, with or without accommodation, with or without accommodation **in place of great danger in the 3 SAUTS (temporary emergency reception facility).** Support adapted to each person, in addition to those already existing, involves the mobilisation of specific accommodation or support for access to or maintenance in self-contained housing according to the situation. **Thus, three steps structure the support:** **Instruction of referral that reports a woman victim (and most often an identified perpetrator) of domestic violence:** we most often contact the prescriber, the workers already identified, and the woman victim to assess the relevance of our intervention. **Care:** we intervene with the woman or even children at first for a global pre-diagnosis. This assessment results in either a reorientation with activation of the relays necessary to support stabilisation or to take care over time to initiate the appropriate measures. This support step is done without hosting (in “external”) or with specific hosting (in place great danger in SAUT). This latter possibility evolved in 2016 to adjust the response as needed, under the control of the DJSCS. Thus, the Temporary Reception House has become an emergency reception facility in the West. Three SAUTERS are operational (NORD/WEST/SUD) and depending on our diagnosis and availability, a place can be allocated for a priori stay of 3 weeks in each of the structures beyond the emergency reception (8 days). This route is managed by SIAO where appropriate. **Follow-up (long-term support): this step aims to consolidate the measures undertaken.** Support may be up to 6 months. At the same time, we make a pre-diagnosis with the author, followed by follow-up whenever possible. **The action consists at each stage, after the diagnosis stage, to ensure and** coordinate multidisciplinary interventions (social, legal and judicial, psychological, health, education...) with victims, in connection with the work of the other members of the family (authors, exposed children) involved in these situations of violence. All family members are individually concerned and the care recommended is supported by the partner network. Care is not urgently needed, since it is primarily a need for immediate shelter managed by 115.
