Nonconsensual Porn as a Form of Intimate Partner Violence
Over the last decade, nonconsensual porn (NCP), or the sharing of sexually explicit material without a person’s consent, has become a growing problem with potentially far-reaching adverse consequences for victims.

Specific…

Reconceptualizing Prevention of Violence Against Women on College Campuses
Research is clear that violence against college women is a problem that warrants alternative prevention approaches to addressing and reducing its prevalence and creating safer campuses for women and men. Banyard’s presentation gave us food for thought as we consider what such novel approaches may look like. New and innovative approaches that are multifaceted, comprehensive, and informed by theory are key. The ecological model can inform our under…

The Benefits of a Culturally Specific Intimate Partner Violence Intervention for African American Survivors

The purpose of the current study was to qua…

This exploratory study was designed to ascertain, from African American survivors, what their experiences were with mainst…

For many women, their trust in a higher power and the support they receive from their faith community is integral to their healing.
