The Influence of Spirituality on Service Utilization and Satisfaction for Women Residing in a Domestic Violence Shelter
Little is known about the influence of spirituality on service utilization and satisfaction among women survivors of intimate partner abuse (IPA). The purpose of this study was to examine differences between shelter and faith-based service utilization and satisfaction in a shelter sample (N = 73). Multiple regression techniques were used. The findings suggest that survivors with higher spirituality were more likely to utilize faith-based resource…

This study explores the relationship between self-awareness and social work students' commitment and understanding of culturally responsive social work practice.

A primary goal of social justice educators is to engage students in a process of self-discovery, with the goal of helping them recognize their own biases, develop empathy, and become better prepared for culturally responsive practice. While social work educators are mandated with the important task of training future social workers in culturally responsive practice with diverse populations, practical strategies on how to do so are scant. This art…
Screening for Co-Occurring Intimate Partner Abuse and Substance Abuse
Substance use problems among women survivors of intimate partner abuse (IPA) present unique challenges in screening for the co-occurrence of these 2 issues. The lack of coordinated efforts and integrated services is startling given the prevalence and subsequent risks among those who suffer at the crossroads of these 2 complex and interrelated problems. This article critically examines the issues in screening to identify IPA victimization and subs…

Domestic violence reportedly affects more than 5 million Americans each year, more than 85% of whom are women. Many of these women turn to their faith-based communities for support and guidance, but little is known about how the church members they turn to perceive or understand domestic violence. This article reports the outcomes of three focus groups in three diverse communities of faith in the African American community that resulted in a bett…
Racial/Ethnic Differences in Dually Diagnosed Anglo and Ethnic Minority Women Receiving Chemical Dependency Treatment
This article examines racial/ethnic differences in a sample of 51 dually diagnosed women who received chemical dependency treatment.

Social Support and Spirituality as Culturally Relevant Factors in Coping Among African American Women Survivors of Partner Abuse

Findings from hierarchical regression analysis indicated that PTSD symptoms rema…
