Aurore Bergé details the emergency assistance plan for women experiencing domestic violence in France

Aurore Bergé sheds light on the support system for women victims of domestic violence

\n\nIn France, it is alarming to note that every three days, a woman dies at the hands of her partner. Faced with this appalling reality, Aurore Bergé, a member of parliament for the majority, wanted to shed light on the support system set up to help women victims of domestic violence.\n\n

A cry of alarm for women victims of violence

\n\nThe fight against violence against women is a cause that Aurore Bergé particularly cares about. The recent clarification on the emergency support system is further proof of her commitment to this cause. According to her, this system should provide immediate and concrete support to women who are facing a violent and abusive situation at home; a situation that has unfortunately been amplified by the lockdown linked to the pandemic.\n\nThe support system includes emergency accommodation measures, psychological monitoring and legal advice. But what is new and particularly notable is the establishment of a simplified administrative process for these women, who will be able to benefit from this assistance much more quickly.\n\n

A simplified administrative process

\n\nIndeed, Aurore Bergé insists on the fact that administrative burden should not be a hindrance for women victims of domestic violence who are seeking help. The new system thus provides for the simplification of the administrative process, with a single point of contact to coordinate the various procedures.\n\nThis emergency system is therefore a further step towards the protection of women victims of domestic violence. The objective is to put an end to the impunity of aggressors and to give victims a voice and dignity.\n\nThe clear and precise presentation of this system by Aurore Bergé reaffirms the government's commitment to combating domestic violence. There is no doubt that these emergency measures are essential to provide support to women in difficulty and enable them to find a way out of their situation. \n\n
