The campaign begins on Sunday, September 6 and the CWA of NSW have partnered with White Ribbon Australia and Domestic Violence NSW to support each organisation's lobbying efforts and services offered to victims and their families.

One of the biggest things the CWA of NSW would like to see changed was more facilities, emergency accommodation and support services for victims in rural and regional NSW.

CWA NSW President Stephanie Stanhope said it was important domestic violence vicitms and their families know they are supporting them and would like to see change.

"One of the major ways we can help is through our advocacy role, we do have good access to politicians and they do listen," she said.

"Partnering with White Ribbon and DV NSW is also an added bonus because it extends the voice to further areas..."

Ms Stanhope said the CWA of NSW understand that domestic violence is a widespread issue.

"It is becoming a national emergency. It is happening everywhere and with the COVID-19 lockdown it's even worse," she said.

"I was a victim o domestic violence and there are so many people out there who have directly been a victim or know someone closely who has. It's very widespread."

The CWA of NSW president said with support domestic violence is someone that victims can get through.

"There are services out there who can help and with the support of community and organisations, you can come out a much stronger person," Ms Stanhope said.

"There is a light at the end of the tunnel, even though at the start it looks as if it is never ending. It is not something anyone should ever have to experience, but unfortunately everyone is a possible victim."
