Latinas and Sexual Assault: Towards Culturally Sensitive Assessment and Intervention.
Low, Georgiana; Organista, Kurt C.
Journal of Multicultural Social Work, v8 n1-2 p131-57 2000
Outlines the sparse empirical data on sexual assault among Latinas. Presents a working bicultural model of sexual assault that frames the problem within both traditional Latino and American gender role systems. Discusses implications for providing culturally competent services for Latina victims that draw on supportive aspects of familism and other Hispanic cultural values. (Contains 49 references.)
