Intimate Partner Abuse

Abstract

Intimate partner violence (IPV) affects approximately 30% of women in their lifetime, with deleterious health and mental health consequences. IPV disproportionately affects women and, often, women who experience IPV face oppression across multiple domains. Feminist advocates have successfully increased awareness and services; yet, for women in abusive relationships, becoming and remaining violence free is challenging. It is important that interventions focus on survivor strengths and attend to women's self‐determination.
