Māori and family violence

In 2017 Te Puni Kōkiri produced an infographic about the prevalence of violence among Māori families in New Zealand. The resource was created using information collected from a range of agencies, including Treasury, Oranga Tamariki – Ministry for Children, Women's Refuge New Zealand and New Zealand Police. This extract from the infographic illustrates the social impact of family violence on Māori health and well-being.
