The Small Steps 4 Hannah Foundation works to HALT domestic and family violence, by campaigning for stronger legal protection against coercive control, and by funding likeminded organisations that provide crisis support for families at risk. The HALT campaign is named for Hannah, Aaliyah, Laianah and Trey, whose lives were taken in an act of violence that shocked Australia. Hannah s parents, Lloyd and Sue Clarke, established the Foundation to help Australians recognise and understand the red flags of coercive control, and to campaign for vital law reform. By late 2022 the Queensland and New South Wales Governments had introduced legislation to their respective Parliaments that will make coercive control a crime in those states. Other mainland states have not moved as quickly, and this remains a focus for the Foundation. All states and territories must act to protect vulnerable members of the community and give law enforcement officials the ability to intervene in abusive relationships before they escalate to deadly violence. The Foundation also advocates very strongly for additional training and resourcing to help police and other agencies recognise coercive control and respond appropriately. Looking to the future, the Foundation will continue to fund organisations that provide support services for families in danger due to coercive control and violence. Operating as a funding provider rather than a service provider has allowed the Foundation to minimise overheads and allocate a very high proportion of its income to service provision. The Foundation is also working towards opening Hannah s Sanctuary a residential complex in suburban Brisbane where families will be able to escape violence and coercive control and begin the process of rebuilding their lives. By promoting a greater understanding of coercive control, how to recognise it and how to respond, and by funding services that directly support people in need, the Small Steps 4 Hannah Foundation is delivering on its mission to HALT domestic and family violence.
