dc.description.notes | Homelessness is a complex problem affecting Australian Indigenous women disproportionately compared to the rest of the Australian population. Homelessness service providers in Cairns and Mount Isa, Australia, provided their perceptions as to why Indigenous women were presenting to homeless services. The key reasons cited by service providers were: domestic violence; alcohol and other drugs; and financial hardship, among other reasons. Potential solutions are explored. The research suggests that an important overall goal in reducing homelessness is to ensure that Indigenous women are safe at home in their own communities. | en |
