Title

Help Seeking For Violence: Views Of Survivors

Abstract

This study of reports of physical abuse by women in medical clinics identified the barriers to reporting abuse, including time constraints and providers' and patients' attitudes and help-seeking patterns, and the responses that women find most helpful. Feminist principles of organizing - consciousness raising, bottom-up organizing, respect for women's definition of the solution, and awareness of the impact of the political - can help guide interventions with these women.
