This report, released in May by the AIHW, shows that the majority of those receiving assistance from a SAAP service were young women aged 15-19.  Accompanying children aged 0 to 4 years also had a high rate of use.

This report provides an overview of assistance given to clients and their accompanying children by the program during the financial year 2005-06, and is accompanied by state and territory supplementary reports. Read about the report at: http://www.aihw.gov.au/publications/index.cfm/title/10419
