Correlates of In-Law Abuse among Male and Female Immigrants in the United States
Exploring the Impact of an Arts Exposure Programme for Individuals Experiencing Housing Vulnerability
Development of B.R.A.K.E. the Cycle
South Asian (SA) immigrants are one of the fastest-growing immigrant groups in the United States. Due to the stigma associated with domestic violence among SAs, disclosing victimization experiences may be challenging. In circumstances where experiences are disclosed, informal help-seeking through family/friends is utilized more often than formal help-seeking. Therefore, it is essential for friends/family to be empowered to effectively intervene. …

MSW Students’ Perceptions of a Research Methods Course and Its Influence on Their Perspectives of Themselves as Eventual Social Workers
Based on CSWE’s 2015 EPAS, students in MSW programs are expected to have knowledge of research methods. However, an understanding of how students perceive these courses as they pertain to their future careers as social work practitioners is less known. This qualitative study examined what MSW students learned about themselves as a result of taking a foundational research method course taught with a social justice lens. Five themes emerged from th…
Sibling Violence
Social work has played an integral role in the conceptualization and implementation of policy aimed at prevention and intervention of various forms of family violence. Seminal federal policies to address child abuse and neglect (Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act), elder abuse (Elder Justice and Older Americans Acts), and intimate partner violence (Violence Against Women and Family Violence Prevention and Services Acts) all focus on specifi…

Domestic violence continues to affect our communities at an alarming rate. Research indicates that one in every three women will experience domestic violence in her lifetime (…
Service Content as a Determinant of Homeless Adults’ Perceptions of Program Efficacy
This work analyzes the relationship between the services clients receive in treatment programs and client ratings of program efficacy. It relies on data from a random sample of clients served by Chicago's homelessness system (N = 554). Regressions utilizing that data suggest that ratings of program efficacy are positively predicted by program ambiance, the ambiance of referral arrangements, residence in programs providing housing, and receipt of …
Family Cohesion and Social Support
International migration has significant effects on the lives of migrants, many resulting from the challenges of cultural adjustment they face in their country of destination. Cultural adjustment or acculturation often includes physical, psychological, spiritual, social, financial, linguistic, and familial adaptation. This process may produce an acculturative stress reaction arising from the psychological difficulties migrants experience as they a…
Characteristics of Women Who Do and Do Not Receive Onsite Shelter Services From Domestic Violence Programs

This article reports the results of a secondary analysis of statewide data from women using IPV services, comparing victims who did and did not obtain shelter. The demographic characteristics, abuse experiences, and service patterns of these survivors are examined. A model predicting character…

Domestic Violence Across Race and Ethnicity
Domestic violence occurs across all ethnic and racial groups, profoundly affecting women, who are most frequently the victims. The U.S. Census Bureau projects that by 2050, 50% of the population will be minorities. To contribute to the growing literature on race and domestic violence, this article uses data derived from domestic violence programs in a large Midwestern state between 1990 and 1995 to focus on the experiences of victims who sought s…

Use of Domestic Violence Services Across Race and Ethnicity by Women Aged 55 and Older
This study focuses on 2,702 White, African American, and Hispanic female victims of domestic violence aged 55 and older who sought services from domestic violence programs. The experiences of these elders in terms of the type of abuse, the relationship to the abuser, the referral source, and service needs are described. Findings indicate that older women in the domestic violence service system have different experiences than persons in the adult …
Majority-Based Neighborhood Organizing and Its Role in Contemporary Community Practice
Neighborhood organizing has been an important aspect of community organization over the last 50 years. However, as individuals identify less with geographic communities and community organizing efforts become issue-as opposed to locality-based, the viability of neighborhood-focused organizing efforts becomes more uncertain. This article describes one model of neighborhood organizing which uses a majority-based approach that is being implemented i…
Clinical Research and Practice with Battered Women
Studies of treatment efficacy provided by process and outcome research with battered women is much less well developed than research on the treatment of batterers. Although there are more than 16 commonly used models, there is little clinical research that addresses their efficacy. This article gives an overview of the theoretical richness that has evolved over the past 20 years and provides a review of process and outcome research on treatment f…

The mental health system and the etiology of homelessness
Previous research suggests that former psychiatric hospital patients become homeless due to (1) their inability to make use of treatment services, (2) the lack of available services, or (3) the lack of available tangible economic supports. However, supportive studies tend to examine the homeless in isolation and therefore do not fully determine whether the three factors differentiate those former patients who become homeless from the large group …
