The provision of culturally specific care for victims of family violence in Aotearoa/New Zealand

Abstract In this paper, I examine the diversity of opinions held by front-line family violence workers in Auckland, Aotearoa, on the issue of culturally specific care. Front-line workers are positioned at the interface between the system of services and benefits available from the state and the victims in need. In order to make sense of family violence discourses operating at the national level, I use front-line workers’ perspectives to analyse the national frameworks for culturally specific care designed for Asian, Pakeha, Pasifika and Maori victims of violence. This article highlights the distance between policy and quotidian front-line service delivery.
