Chinese immigrant survivors of intimate partner violence (IPV) in the United States have been overlooked and underserved. The purpose of this study was to explore their perceptions of resources for assistance as well as their priority needs. We conducted phone interviews with 20 Chinese immigrant women who had experienced IPV in the past year. The women expressed their needs for emotional support, culturally specific services, a variety of online resources to meet different demands, being empowered, raising the Chinese community's awareness about IPV, and batterer intervention programs. These women's testimonies shows that greater effort should be directed toward addressing those needs in order to reduce IPV and its impacts on health in this vulnerable group of women.
美国的亲密伴侣暴力(IPV)幸存者中,中国移民一直被忽视和服务不足。本研究旨在探讨他们对援助资源的看法以及他们的优先需求。我们对 20 名过去一年中经历过 IPV 的中国移民女性进行了电话采访。这些女性表达了她们对情感支持、文化特定服务、各种在线资源以满足不同需求、赋权、提高华人社区对 IPV 的认识以及实施施虐者干预计划的需求。这些女性的证词表明,应该加大力度满足这些需求,以减少这一弱势群体中 IPV 及其对健康的影响。
