Domestic violence experiences of Asian Indian marriage migrants are unique due to an interplay of distinct aspects of their life contexts in the United States, such as immigration status, language barriers, and social support. What gaps exist in state-level policies to address the needs and concerns of abused Asian Indian marriage migrants? This research examines the question with interviews of 11 nonprofit sector professionals working closely with Asian Indian women across five states – California, Texas, New York, New Jersey, and North Carolina. The findings indicate that five critical areas of policy interventions profoundly impact the experiences of abused Asian Indian marriage migrants as they begin their journey to live independently of the abuser. Examining the strengths and weaknesses of these policies highlights that future holistic interventions should be strengthened to support the creation of a safe and protective environment for abused Asian Indian marriage migrants to navigate their lives
