TY - JOUR PY - 2008// TI - Indigenous family violence: a statistical challenge JO - Injury A1 - Cripps, Kyllie SP - S25 EP - 35 VL - 39 IS - 5 N2 - The issue of family violence and sexual abuse in Indigenous communities across Australia has attracted much attention throughout 2007, including significant intervention by the federal government into communities deemed to be in crisis.
