The system is overwhelmed. Victims face insurmountable barriers when seeking protection - from complex legal processes to dangerous delays. Many are deterred by intimidating procedures precisely when they need support most urgently.
Breaking Down the Legal Barrier
The current system forces vulnerable victims to navigate a labyrinthine legal process when they're already traumatised and in danger.
01
Download the DV1 Form
A nine-page application filled with intimidating legal terminology that requires technical understanding most victims don't possess.
02
Navigate Complex Language
Legal jargon creates confusion and self-doubt, with many victims unsure if their experiences qualify for protection under the law.
03
Physical Attendance
Victims may need to physically attend a police station or go to court to obtain a copy of the DV1 Form and receive support in completing the form, creating safety risks and practical barriers, particularly for those in rural areas or with limited mobility.
For many victims, this process becomes retraumatising, unsafe, or simply impossible without professional support - creating a dangerous gap between recognising abuse and securing legal protection.
Introducing Frida: Digital Safety Revolution
Frida transforms the intimidating legal process into a supportive, step-by-step journey that puts victim-survivors back in control of their safety.
Plain English Translation
Complex legal terminology becomes clear, accessible language that victims can understand and navigate confidently.
Supportive Examples
The app explains how everyday experiences like coercive control, financial abuse, or stalking meet specific legal definitions.
Safety-First Features
Users can save progress securely, return when safe, and utilise a quick-exit button for instant app closure.
Court-Ready Output
Generates the users answers in a chronological format that mimics the DV1 form, ready for review and submission.
Frida empowers victims to take control of their safety journey privately, at their own pace, without compromising their security or dignity.
Revolutionary Features Built for Survivors
Trauma-Informed Design
Developed collaboratively with survivors and frontline workers, ensuring every interaction respects the user's emotional state and safety needs.
Privacy-First Architecture
No mandatory police involvement, no data sharing without explicit consent, and secure local storage protecting user confidentiality.
Integrated Support Network
Seamless connections to DV Connect, 1800 RESPECT, and other critical services without leaving the app environment.
Complete User Empowerment
Victims maintain absolute control over their story, timeline, and information sharing throughout the entire process.
These unique features address the specific vulnerabilities and needs identified by survivors themselves, creating a truly user-centred approach to legal protection.
