The Albury Wodonga Health and Zonta Club of Albury-Wodonga project, funded by a Border Trust grant, has been ongoing for 10 months.
Launching the resource, Albury Community Health sexual assault services co-ordinator Kelley Latta said she hoped all frontline workers would have the resource.
Albury Deputy Mayor Amanda Cohn pointed out the discrepancy between government spending on terrorism and domestic violence in the past 20 years.
“$53 billion per person affected by terrorism has been spent, and just $55 spent per person affected by domestic violence,” she said. “I’m proud to be part of a community who aren’t making this somebody else’s problem.”
