Trapped in housing insecurity
Homelessness and intimate partner violence (IPV) do not impact all communities equally. Survivors from marginalized communities—that is communities that have been historically and structurally excluded from social, economic, and political resources—face additional challenges weathering IPV and housing crises. Understanding the housing experiences of marginalized survivors is necessary to achieve housing equity for all survivors. Community‐based p…

Improving Safe Housing Access for Domestic Violence Survivors Through Systems Change
Domestic violence (DV) survivors often encounter serious barriers navigating between housing and homelessness (H/H), coordinated entry (CE), and DV service systems to access safe housing. This study examined an innovative program that deployed DV coordinators as systems change agents liaising between H/H services, DV programs, and CES to increase survivors’ safe housing access. Five listening sessions were conducted using a semi-structured interv…

“The Propellers of My Life” The Impact of Domestic Violence Transitional Housing on Parents and Children
Field Note—Responding to the #MeToo Era in Social Work
An alarming number of social work students indicate experiencing sexual harassment in their field placements; however, very few formally report these experiences. Recent public discussion about the prevalence of sexual harassment at work and the lack of trauma-informed responses have heightened the urgency to provide policy solutions that are effective at eliminating the behavior; social work students placed in field are no different. Field educa…
Compassion Fatigue Among the Intimate Partner Violence and Sexual Assault Workforce
Gaps in knowledge related to occupational stress among the intimate partner violence (IPV) and sexual assault (SA) workforce remain. This study examined associations between key risk factors for occupational stress and compassion fatigue among a sample of IPV/SA service providers in the Southwestern United States ( N = 520). Results of the hierarchical regression analysis identified microaggressions, age, recent life stress, direct practice, and …
From “Stop Family Violence” to “Build Healthy Relationships to End Violence”
The Grand Challenges for Social Work were conceived as a call to action for social work researchers and practitioners that would ambitiously and collectively provide leadership on the most pressing social issues we face as a nation. Grand challenge initiatives have a threefold charge: (1) harness social work’s science and knowledge base; (2) collaborate with individuals, community-based organizations, and professionals from all fields and discipl…
“I feel like... their relationship is based on the media”
Factors associated with health facility delivery in West and Central Africa
We examined associations between individual and community socioeconomic status (SES) and childbirth in a health facility in West and Central Africa using data from the 2009-2011 United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey for women in seven countries ( n = 34,487). Individual SES measures were education and wealth; community SES was low or high poverty index. In adjusted results, women residing in communities with hi…
Successful Rules Reduction Implementation Process in Domestic Violence Shelters
Domestic violence (DV) shelters provide safety for survivors to consider their options and heal from abuse. Unfortunately, survivors have reported negative experiences associated with shelter rule enforcement. Rules, such as curfew, decreased access to community social networks; and staff's rule enforcement may trigger survivors' past experiences with abusive control and structural racism. Rule enforcement may deter safe, trusting relationships b…
Intersectional Trauma-Informed Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) Services
Over the past 50 years, programs serving intimate partner violence (IPV) survivors have expanded nationally. However, despite IPV program growth service gaps remain, particularly for the most marginalized and vulnerable survivor populations. Emerging practice models call for reimagining current IPV service delivery within an intersectional feminist, trauma-informed framework. An overview of intersectional (e.g. survivor-centered, full-frame, cult…
Bedtime is when bad stuff happens”
P.s
Social work students created a community activism project to raise awareness about trauma prevalence and impact. Trauma theory describes silencing as the mechanism that hinders individual and community healing. Therefore, students sought to create an interactive opportunity to heighten trauma visibility on campus. They created a physical mailbox and invited community members respond to the prompt, “I am a survivor because ...” and to read others’…
Understanding Gender Symmetry within an Expanded Partner Violence Typology
Measuring Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) Service Providers’ Attitudes
Exploring Individual and Organizational Factors Contributing to Compassion Satisfaction, Secondary Traumatic Stress, and Burnout in Domestic Violence Service Providers
Research on workplace wellness often neglects the role of organizational factors in preventing negative effects and promoting positive outcomes for service providers. Using a person–environment fit model, which highlights compatibility between an individual worker’s characteristics and his or her work environment, we examine key risk and protective factors that might contribute to the well-being of domestic violence services providers. Service pr…
Cross-reporting of Interpersonal Violence and Animal Cruelty
The overlapping nature of interpersonal violence and animal cruelty is well established, however historically each issue has been addressed by distinct and separate protective systems. An innovative community-based project is described that utilized crosstraining as a mechanism to foster collaboration between human services and animal control agencies. Findings are useful for professionals and community stakeholders interested in facilitating the…
Sexual Victimization and Family Violence Among Urban African American Adolescent Women
Guided by an intersectional feminist perspective, we examined sexual victimization, witnessing intimate partner violence (IPV) in the family, and familial physical abuse among a sample of 180 urban African American adolescent women. We used cluster analysis to better understand the profiles of cumulative victimization, and the relationships between profiles and IPV victimization and personal exposure to the sex trade. Just under one third of the …
Back to Basics
Survivor voice is essential to effectively implement survivor-focused IPV (intimate partner violence) services. In this focus group study, domestic violence survivors (n = 30) shared detailed perspectives as service seekers and recipients, whereas national hotline advocates (n = 24) explored relationships between service providers and survivors based on their interactions with both. Four thematic categories related to enhancing IPV services emerg…
Clinical Challenges in Addressing Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) with Pregnant and Parenting Adolescents
Why Don't They Follow Through
Intimate partner violence (IPV) screening and referral are routinely practiced by various healthcare providers. Although facilitators and barriers to IPV disclosure have been previously explored, healthcare providers' role in linking patients to longer-term IPV-related resources has received only superficial attention. This focus group study explored IPV survivors' service seeking experiences, using the complementary perspectives of advocates fro…
The Relational Consequences of Interpersonal Violence (IPV) for Adolescent Mothers
Relationships are known to be vitally important for development, particularly in adolescence. Transcripts of semistructured interviews of 24 adolescent mothers who had experienced interpersonal violence (IPV) were analyzed to explore the effects of IPV on their important relationships. Mothers described feelings of loneliness and isolation; fears about trusting others; early and sometimes overwhelming family responsibilities; and disconnection fr…

Organizational Prevention of Vicarious Trauma
For the past 30 years, researchers and practitioners have been concerned about the impact of work stress experienced by social workers. Although research on burnout has been a useful field of exploration, a new concern has arisen about work stresses specifically associated with work with victims of trauma. The concept of vicarious trauma provides insights into the stresses of this particular kind of work. Like the burnout research, early research…

Interpersonal Violence and Animals
Research indicates an association between interpersonal violence and animal cruelty. This article examine the virtues and limitations of creating statutory authority requiring professionals to report substantiated abuse, neglect, and cruelty across service delivery systems (e.g. child and adult protect services and humane societies). Such a legislative approach authorizes and legitimizes "mandated crosssector reporting." The probative and researc…
