Black Women Reporting and Seeking Help for Sexual Assault
Black women in America have historically been victims of oppression, racism, and sexual assault. This victimization can be traced as far back as the forced immigration to America in Jamestown, Virginia in 1619.

Afrocentric Treatment of African American Women and Their Children in a Residential Chemical Dependency Program
Since the late 1970s and early 1980s when the so-called war was declared on drugs in America, little attention to treatment has been focused on African American women. Even less attention has been given to their children in treatment. Even when the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) made an attempt to refocus attention by awarding more funding to research and treatment (Rosenbaum & Murphy, 1981), these funds focused on women, but did not spe…
