摘要

目的:移民幸存者尤其容易遭受家庭暴力(DV),并且在寻求家庭暴力帮助方面面临复杂的障碍。几项《反暴力侵害妇女法》(VAWA)重新授权旨在解决这些障碍。本研究从服务提供者的角度探讨移民幸存者使用VAWA条款的经验。材料和方法:我们进行了半结构化访谈(n = 11),以了解服务提供者如何支持家庭暴力的移民幸存者,因为它与VAWA有关。采用方便抽样方法和归纳编码,然后对访谈数据进行专题分析。结果:我们确定了三个主要主题:“通过他们的代理或推荐对VAWA利用的提供者支持”,“障碍”和“提供者支持幸存者的建议”。提供者强调了在获得服务条款和确保赋予权力、安全和支持移民幸存者需求的战略方面的差距。讨论和结论:未来的研究应该包括来自美国所有地区的服务提供者。社会工作者在与移民幸存者一起工作时应该采用以客户为中心、了解创伤、文化反应的方法。政策影响包括(a) VAWA条款认可的“任何可信证据保护”在u -签证批准决定中得到承认,(b)使幸存者协助执法部门调查和起诉犯罪的要求成为可选要求,以及(c)增加u -签证上限。

Provider Experiences of Utilizing the Violence Against Women Act to Support Immigrant Survivors of Domestic Violence.

Purpose: Immigrant survivors are disproportionately vulnerable to domestic violence (DV) and face complex barriers to DV help-seeking. Several Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) reauthorizations sought to address these barriers. This study explores immigrant survivors' experiences of utilizing VAWA provisions from service providers' perspectives.

Materials and methods: We conducted semi-structured interviews (n = 11) to learn how service providers are supporting immigrant survivors of DV as it relates to VAWA. A convenience sampling method and inductive coding were used, followed by a thematic analysis of data obtained from the interviews.

Results: We identified three main themes: "Provider Support for VAWA Utilization Through Their Agency or Referrals," "Barriers," and "Provider Recommendations to Support Survivors." Providers highlight the gaps in access to service provisions and strategies that ensure empowerment, safety, and support for the needs of immigrant survivors.

Discussion and conclusion: Future research should include service providers from across all regions of the U.S. Social workers should utilize a client-centered, trauma-informed, culturally responsive approach when working with immigrant survivors. Policy implications include (a) that "any credible evidence protection" recognized by VAWA provisions is acknowledged for U-Visa approval decisions, (b) making optional the requirement that survivors assist law enforcement in the investigation and prosecution of the crime, and (c) increasing the U-visa cap.
