Abstract

"This profile offers a comprehensive overview of the issues that are the most important to Aboriginal women in their struggle to improve their lives and those of their children. It merges gender-inclusive analysis with a population health approach and uses indicators that link with the key determinants of health, enabling expansion of the evidence base to identify priorities and interventions regarding the risk factors faced by Aboriginal women. In addition to statistical information, the profile features comments by a number of First Nations & Metis women in Saskatchewan. The information is arranged in sections covering the following: demographics, education, employment, income, housing, families, violence, and health."--WorldCat.
