About this service

Advocacy for system change has been a key part of our work since our doors opened in 2003.

Women leaving abusive relationships encounter many systems, including the family law/court system, that do not fully understand the dynamics of abuse or the structural framework within which much family violence occurs.

Lukes Place was born from advocacy in response to the death of Luke Schillings, who was killed by his father during unsupervised access time shortly after his mother, taking Luke with her, left the abusive marriage. The Durham community came together to advocate for changes to systemic responses that put women and their children at risk of ongoing, sometimes lethal harm.
