Native women’s issues

Native women’s issues encompass concerns like high rates of violence, including domestic abuse and homicide, often driven by systemic neglect, racism, and lack of resources. They face barriers to healthcare, education, and economic opportunities, which impact their well-being and safety. Historical trauma, discrimination, and jurisdictional complexities also hinder justice and support. Addressing these issues requires recognizing their unique experiences, promoting culturally sensitive services, and strengthening policies to ensure safety, health, and equality for Indigenous women.
