Reducing Aboriginal Financial Elder Abuse in the Kimberley
This groundbreaking research and toolkit was developed by Kimberley Jiyigas, commissioned by KCLS with financial support of the Commonwealth Attorney-General’s Department. Based on extensive interviews across the Kimberley, this work highlights the causes and prevalence of elder financial abuse, and what can be done to change things for our families and communities.
