Shelters for victims of abuse with ties to Indigenous communities or organizations in Canada, 2017/2018 / by Ashley Maxwell.: CS85-002/40-7E-PDF
"Using data from the 2018 Survey of Residential Facilities for Victims of Abuse (SRFVA), this Juristat presents information on shelters for victims of abuse that have ties to First Nations, Métis or Inuit communities or organizations in Canada. The SRFVA is a census of all shelters in Canada that are primarily mandated to serve victims of abuse. This article examines the characteristics of Indigenous shelters in Canada, including the number of annual admissions and the types of services offered, and provides additional breakdowns based on the characteristics of the individuals who are accessing these shelters for reasons of abuse. This information is based on two distinct time periods which are captured by the survey. First, data relating to the characteristics of shelters are based on a 12-month reference period that preceded the collection of the survey data (2017/2018). Second, information relating to individual residents is based on the snapshot day of April 18, 2018"--Page 4.
