Reports

This report tells the stories of eleven women who were imprisoned in the Alexander Maconochie Centre (AMC) and who shared their stories with Women’s Health Matters. Here they are able to share not only their histories and experiences that led to imprisonment, but their hopes for the future too.

This report is the fifth in a series that looks at the views and experiences of health and the health needs of ACT women, with the aim of improving options and access to services. This study sought the views of older ACT women on: their health, their health needs, their access to services, supports and information, and the barriers to maintaining their health. The report also explores issues such as their social connectedness, their housing and living arrangements, their financial status, and their access to transport.
