This Victorian Aboriginal Affairs Framework data demonstrates how we've tracked against our commitment to improving outcomes for Aboriginal Victorians. The Report includes historical data dating from 2008.

An assessment of progress is made by examining data from 2008 (or closest to) until the latest available data at the time of reporting, in 2019. The baseline year is 2008 as this was the year in which the National Indigenous Reform Agreement was established. The Report uses most recent available data and limitations are indicated where appropriate in the Report. Some data sets have different sampling approaches and time-series, particularly in the use of comparison data for non-Aboriginal people (or whole-of-population). In some instances, comparable non-Aboriginal or Victoria-wide data is not available to support group comparisons. In these instances, proxy data is used. For example, ABS data from Aboriginal-specific surveys such as the National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Health and Social Surveys are used to inform some indicators. The most comparable equivalent data for non-Aboriginal Victorians is the Victorian Population Health Survey which has a different sampling approach and time series. This approach, while liable to sampling bias, has been used by Victorian population health researchers and is methodologically sound. Aboriginal data has unique challenges. Small population sizes mean that there is a diminished ability to detect trends and changes for a given outcome (minimum detectable effect), and a greater degree of data volatility leading to large fluctuations between time points. This means there is a higher threshold for determining improvement at a statistically significant level compared to general population data. The Report identifies where trends are suggestive of improvement or deterioration but are compromised by data volatility or small numbers.

This dataset presents indicator 34.1: Number of families accessing Family and Community Support Services. The data covers the financial years of 2008/09-2012/13 and is aggregated by Local Government Areas (LGA) from the 2011 Australian Statistical Geography Standard. This dataset is part of the Victorian Department of Education and Training's Victorian Child and Adolescent Monitoring System (VCAMS) data release. This dataset is sourced from the Client Relationship Information System (CRIS). The VCAMS Framework comprises 150 indicators as agreed by the Children's Service Coordination Board. It incorporates 35 outcomes that relate to aspects of children's health, development, safety, learning and well-being in four categories - the child, families, community, and supports and services. For more information, please visit VCAMS Indicators. Please note: AURIN has spatially enabled the original data. Where data values were "NDP" (no data provided) in the original data they have been set to null.

This spreadsheet contains data items for the local government area (LGA) profiles. Most data items include a rate for each LGA and a ranking of the LGA's score compared with other LGAs. Data is also provided for Department of Health regions and rural and metro Victoria. Modelling GIS and Planning products produces statistical profiles of geographic areas to facilitate service planning and policy development by enabling access to a broad range of data about each geographic area. The geographic profiles currently available on this website are Local Government Area Profiles 2011.

This dataset contains Aboriginal Victoria’s (AV) cultural heritage management regional boundaries across Victoria. Victoria has been divided into 5 regions. The main difference is that the three metropolitan regions, plus Bass Coast Shire were combined into the metropolitan region. In addition, the Grampians and Barwon South-West regions were combined to form the Barwon South West/Grampians region.
