520 _aThe fatal impact of family violence and how it contributes to young Australians’ deaths by suicide is downplayed and poorly recorded, hidden by other presenting issues such as harmful substance use, and missing from Australia’s response systems, advocate Tash Anderson and authors of a report released today reveal. As part of a national movement to recognise young victim-survivors of family violence in their own right, the report recommends, “Establishing a specialised service system for 12-to-24-year-old victim-survivors, evidence-based policy reform, and more information sharing between services including coroners to ensure histories of childhood trauma aren’t missed and their role in later life outcomes are recognised,” says report lead author Silke Meyer.
