journal contribution
posted on 2017-05-05, 04:19 authored by Daly, AnneThis paper presents a preliminary analysis of 1996 Census data relating to female indigenous sole parents. It confirms results from the 1991 Census which show that sole-parent families account for a larger share of indigenous families than is the case among other Australian families. Indigenous female sole parents tend to be younger and to have larger numbers of children and less education. They are also less likely to be in employment than other Australian sole parents.
