Rates of sexual victimization among Indigenous women are 3 times higher when compared with non-Indigenous women. The purpose of this secondary data analysis was to explore the experiences and recommendations of Indigenous women who reported sexual assault to the police and were not believed. This qualitative study of the experiences of 11 Indigenous women reflects four themes. The women experienced (a) victimization across the lifespan, (b) violent sexual assault, (c) dismissal by police, and (d) survival and resilience. These women were determined to voice their experience and make recommendations for change in the way police respond to sexual assault.
与非原住民女性相比，原住民女性遭受性侵犯的比率高出 3 倍。本二次数据分析的目的是探讨向警方报案但未被采信的性侵原住民女性的经历和建议。这项对 11 名原住民女性经历的定性研究反映了四个主题。这些女性经历了（a）一生中的受害经历，（b）暴力性侵，（c）警方的拒绝处理，以及（d）生存和韧性。这些女性决心表达自己的经历，并就警方处理性侵案件的方式提出改革建议。
