Community and System Advocate Perspectives on Extreme Risk Protection Order Implementation
Community and system-based (eg, civil legal) advocates can play a critical role in the implementation of extreme risk protection orders (ERPO); however, the novelty of ERPO laws impedes understanding of their implementation in these settings. As most ERPO laws are based on Domestic Violence Protection Orders (DVPO), we explored how the implementation of DVPOs by system and community advocates can inform recommendations for advocate involvement in…
What Counts as Evidence in Child Welfare Research
In this commentary, we respond to Barth and colleagues and critique their premise that Western-based research with population-level administrative data is the best and only valid evidence on which to base child welfare policy and practice changes. We offer an alternative viewpoint on what forms of evidence should be brought to bear as we consider re-envisioning the child welfare system, highlighting the importance of lived experience and the need…
Restorative Justice and the Dance with the Devil
Colluding With and Resisting the State
The movements for racial justice, health equity, and economic relief have been activated in the contentious and challenging climate of 2020, with COVID-19 and social protest. In this context, feminist scholars, anti-violence advocates, and transformative justice practitioners have renewed their call for substantive changes to all forms of gender-based violence. This article offers a genealogy of the battered women’s movement in the U.S. from the …
Relationships So Loving and So Hurtful”
Intimate partner violence (IPV) in Asian, Pacific Islander, and Native Hawaiian (APINH) queer women's and lesbian relationships was examined through interviews with 24 APINH respondents. Seven major themes were uncovered in the dynamics of intimate violence: (a) control, intimidation, and instilling fear; (b) "deep" emotional intimacy; (c) first, early, or rebound relationships; (d) sexual jealousy and possessiveness; (e) shame as a barrier; (f) …
Strange Bedfellows
The incidence of intimate partner abuse among couples in the military, as throughout all social life, has been well documented. In the early 1990s, there were a number of dramatic domestic-violence-related cases, including homicides of military wives. In response, the U.S. Marines partnered with an advocacy-based domestic violence organization to implement a coordinated community response to domestic violence throughout the U.S. Marine Corps. Thi…
Being" Native versus "Going Native
The increasing cultural diversity among professional social workers has resulted in the need to examine critically some of the earlier notions about the epistemology, ontology, and methodology of social work research and practice. One outcome of these analyses about how and by whom research projects are carried out is the emergence of "native," "indigenous," or "insider" research in which scholars conduct studies with populations and communities …
The Social Process of "Passing" to Manage Stigma
In order to manage social stigma, some individuals construct and enact a social interaction strategy known as passing, which is "a performance in which one presents himself as what one is not" (Rohy, 1996). Based on interviews with lesbians and gay men of color, this article suggests that the process of passing is not based upon a rejection of stigmatized identity, but situationally employed to resist social oppression
Compounding the Triple Jeopardy
Over the last 15 years, societal awareness of spouse abuse has resulted in an extensive network of services, legislative reform, and research initiatives focused on increasing the public response to this serious social problem. More recently, battering in intimate lesbian relationships has gained the attention of women's and gay/lesbian organizations that deal with domestic violence issues. Lesbians in violent relationships differ significantly f…
