Young People and Family and Intimate Partner Violence: 7 year analysis, 2015-2022 Fact Sheet

ABSTRACT

Catherine Mann and Dr Rebecca Duell, Brisbane Youth Service

Brisbane Youth Service (BYS) has completed comprehensive intake assessments with all young people accessing the service for ongoing planned support over the past 7 years.

Domestic and family violence (DFV) includes family violence (FV) and intimate partner violence (IPV). BYS has collected self-reported experience of FV and IPV data from everyone accessing ongoing planned support since 2015. We’ve analysed this data to compare demographic factors such as age, gender, cultural identities, sexuality, experience of disability, and parenthood.

Over, 2,800 young people provided information about their experience of domestic and family violence at intake. This factsheet summarises the FV and IPV data for young people.
