If you are facing family violence, you have several options for help that may depend on the nature of the emergency and the level of violence: - Calling for help (Police at 999, AWARE Helpline 1800 774 5935) -Getting medical attention -Reporting to the Police -Seeking counselling -Seeking shelter in a crisis shelter -Seeking legal protection http://www.aware.org.sg/what-can-i-do-if-i-am-facing-family-violence/ The most common form of a Protection Order is the Personal Protection Order (PPO). Under the PPO, the court may make one or both of the following orders: -The offender cannot use family violence against the family member; -The offender cannot incite or assist anyone to commit family violence against the family member http://www.aware.org.sg/getting-a-personal-protection-order/
