New Statistics on Violence Against Disabled People w/ Disability Rights Commissioner Paula Tesoriero: June 29, 2021

A couple of weeks ago, the New Zealand Crime and Victims Survey Cycle 3 was published by the Ministry of Justice. The data showed that disabled people are more likely to experience interpersonal violence and sexual assault than non-disabled people.

News and Editorial Director Jemima Huston talks to Disability Rights Commissioner Paula Tesoriero about the significance of the data and how it might be acted upon by the central government.
