Understanding Indigenous Mental Health Inequalities

Suicide rate of Aboriginal people is X times that of non-Indigenous people in NSW

Aboriginal people are X times as likely as non-Aboriginal people to be hospitalised for intentional self-harm than non-Indigenous

In 2010, suicide accounted for 2% of registered deaths of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples (NSW, Qld, WA, SA and NT combined).

Nearly X of Aboriginal people aged over 15 years reported having high to very high levels of psychological distress

Trauma, the Stolen Generation and racism are contributing risk factors of poor mental health for Aboriginal Peoples
