研究人员发现,许多旨在帮助亲密伴侣暴力(IPV)幸存者的服务采取了主流的,色盲的干预方法。几位作者指出,需要有文化上的具体干预措施,以充分解决非洲裔美国人社区内的IPV问题。这项探索性研究的目的是确定,从非洲裔美国人的幸存者,他们的经验是什么与主流IPV干预措施,以及他们的经验与文化特定的家庭暴力机构是如何从这些经验不同。总的来说,妇女对主流服务的经历大多是有问题的,对具有特定文化的机构的经历大多是积极的。
Researchers have found that many services designed to assist survivors of intimate partner violence (IPV) take a mainstream, color-blind approach to their interventions. Several authors have indicated a need for culturally specific IPV interventions to adequately address the issue of IPV within the African American community. This exploratory study was designed to ascertain, from African American survivors, what their experiences were with mainstream IPV interventions and how their experience with a culturally specific domestic violence agency was different from those experiences. Overall, women described mostly problematic experiences with mainstream services and positive experiences with the culturally specific agency.
