Would you like to be part of a research  project?
Do you have a physical disability and are over  the age of 18 years?
Have  you been in an ‘abusive’ or ‘hurtful’ relationship?
(which can include physical, emotional, sexual,  or with-holding of medication or mobility aids) by a boyfriend/partner, husband,  sibling, carer, parent, service provider etc in the last five years
If you answered YES to these  questions, then please  read on.
We are seeking a number of women with physical  disabilities (over the age of 18 years) to assist us in conducting a research  study about your experiences with violent or hurtful relationships and what kind  of help you received (if any). 
The research is being conducted by  postgraduate student Karen Jordan (who is a woman with a physical disability)  from the University of  Sydney and will inform  social work practice and education about better ways to support this group of  women.
You can register your interest  through:
Calling Karen Jordan on 02 9351 4712;  or emailing kjor0898@uni.sydney.edu.au and leave your name and contact details  with a safe time to call or email back. Karen will contact you to explain in  more detail about the study and to see if you would like to  participate.
