Abstract:

Disability in Australian Indigenous populations is twice as high compared to non-Indigenous populations. This study explores the perceptions of health and disability from the viewpoint of Indigenous children and young people with and without disabilities. A total of 24 Perth youths aged 9 to 26 years participated. Findings outline the facilitators and barriers to health and beliefs around the causes of disability. These results have important implications for disability service providers working with Indigenous communities.

Abstract:

These two mixed method studies are among the first to focus on resilience among Canadian Aboriginal (i.e., First Nations, Métis, and Inuit) youth living in out-of-home care. The first study was quantitative and consisted of cross-sectional and longitudinal components. For the cross-sectional investigation, the participants consisted of 510 First Nations (237 females, 273 males aged 10-16 years), 39 Métis (15 females, 24 males aged 10-16 years), and 10 Inuit young people (2 females, 8 males aged 10-16 years) who were drawn from an ongoing study of young people in out-of-home care in Ontario col

Abstract:

Aboriginal young people experience a high rate of family violence, alcohol and drug misuse, suicide, sexual abuse, and socioeconomic disadvantage (Gordon, Hallahan & Henry, 2002; Hunter, 1990, 1991c; Kimberley Aboriginal Medical Services Council, 1999; Memmott, Stacy, Chambers & Keys, 2001; Swan & Raphael, 1995). Over the last decade a burgeoning array of policy, services and programs have been developed to combat the social and emotional problems in Aboriginal communities. Despite some successes, Aboriginal children and youth consistently demonstrate poorer outcomes than non-Aboriginal youngs

Abstract:

Background: Dispossession and dislocation of Aboriginal people in Canada through the reserve, residential school and child welfare systems have contributed to the gross overrepresentation of HIV/AIDS infection, substance use, and housing instability in Aboriginal communities. Ensuring young Aboriginal people who use illicit drugs have access to safe spaces, including places to live, is a fundamental part of dismantling structural injustices that lead to their elevated vulnerability to HIV infection. Objective: This thesis investigates access to safe spaces among young Aboriginal men and women

Abstract:

Alternative schools are an emerging model of education offered to young people who have been disenfranchised from conventional schooling opportunities. The body of literature on alternative schools in Australia has not identified how many Indigenous young people are engaged with alternative schools and how alternative schools are supporting Indigenous young people to remain engaged in education. It is well documented that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people experience significant disadvantage including poorer educational outcomes than their non-Indigenous peers.

Abstract:

Many Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander young people in New South Wales have lived experiences of mental health/social and emotional wellbeing services and systems. These lived experiences and knowledges are of great value to services and systems that are seeking to improve mental health/social and emotional wellbeing health outcomes through systemic reform. The lived experiences of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander young people are crucial to developing an authentic understanding of why some services and systems work and why some services and systems do not work; they also offer a cons

Abstract:

Aboriginal leadership and communities at large are deeply concerned about the disproportionate number of young Aboriginal people entering the child welfare and justice systems in Canada. The current institutionalization of young Aboriginal people must be understood as an extension of Canada’s colonial history, including generations of family disruption and child apprehensions. More knowledge is needed on the impacts of these experiences among young Aboriginal people. This study compares sociodemographics, trauma experiences and drug and health related vulnerabilities between young Aboriginal

Abstract:

Background: Very little data exists on the overrepresentation of Aboriginal people among HIV and sexually transmitted infection cases in Canada, and how these vulnerabilities interplay with historic trauma, sexual abuse and the utilization of condoms as a protective barrier. Purpose: This analysis explores potential risk factors for inconsistent condom use among the young Aboriginal men and women participating in the Cedar Project at baseline and over time. Methods: The Cedar Project is an ongoing prospective study of Aboriginal young people in Vancouver and Prince George who use injection

Abstract:

The purpose of this study is to identify the needs of homeless young Aboriginal women and develop a culturally appropriate, therapeutic, service delivery model.

A qualitative content analysis methodological approach was used to examine major issues, identify key concepts and analyse these concepts in order to develop deductively, propositions from which organising constructs could be derived a

Abstract:

Aboriginal young people are exposed to the impact of colonisation in Australia. They are at risk of becoming alienated from their homelands, cultures, communities and families. Some have become alienated, joining one of the most marginalised groups in Australian society – homeless people. Aboriginal young people, many of whom are already marginalised because of their indigeneity, join a group that can be described as further marginalised – that is, Aboriginal and homeless. In essence, Aboriginal homelessness can be seen and described as a loss of sovereignty. The Hebersham Aboriginal Youth Ser

Abstract:

Luke Butcher investigated how youth justice programs could better support Aboriginal young people from rural communities. The impact of colonisation and social disadvantage were major factors contributing to Aboriginal young people’s contact with NSW Youth Justice. The findings informed a new theory to guide the design of youth justice programs.

This thesis tells a story of the lands belonging to the Darumbal people located in the coastal region of Central Queensland, Australia, through the lives of a select number of young people connected to the Country as either Traditional Custodians or as members of other Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander groups who have relocated to this area. In particular, the research examines how ten young Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people experienced school and how they leveraged those experiences to transition into family and community roles as young leaders.

Abstract:

An ethnographic method was used for data collection and analysis. Three interrelated themes from the data analyses informed study findings: (1) being cut off from family and feeling lonely, (2) what's the point? and (3) not depression, just depressed. Understanding young mothers' depression after the birth of their babies is important to inform future research and gain insights into relevant nursing interventions for this population. More knowledge of the phenomenon will lead to earlier identification and prevention of the long-term sequelae of depression and potentially promote healthier moth

Abstract:

The experience of the life work journeys of urban Aboriginal young people in Canada is largely unknown. This group faces multiple challenges in entering the labour force from social and economic disparities to cultural discontinuity. This qualitative case study collected stories from urban Aboriginal young people who are in search of meaningful and sustainable work. Using group interviews set within Indigenous sharing circles, 25 youth living in Victoria, British Columbia shared their stories of the supports, challenges and barriers they face in their life work journeys.
