This study investigated the needs of Indigenous women and children who are severely over-represented in rates of domestic and family violence (DFV). Developing culturally appropriate responses to Indigenous DFV and improving integration between housing and DFV and child protection services should reduce rates of Indigenous women's injury and death, as well as rates of Indigenous children's out-of-home care.

This research is part of a wider AHURI Inquiry into Integrated housing support for vulnerable families. (From the website). Follow the links for related information. Record #6671
