| dc.description.notes | This article presents the experiences of domestic violence among Ethiopian refugees and immigrants in the US. A subset (of 18 participants) of the larger study sample (254) participated in 3 focus groups. The research was done through a public health department, university and community agency partnership. Some of the largest Ethiopian ethnic groups are the Oromo, Tigray, Amhara and Somali, with Christianity and Islam being the dominant religions. The article shows that domestic violence is occurring in the context of immigration, acculturation and rapid changes in family and social structure. The findings looked at community awareness and attitude toward domestic violence, descriptions of abuse, responses to abuse, survivor needs, use of services, issues of children’s and teens’ needs. Participants suggested a need for language and culture-specific domestic violence support and advocacy, as well as education programmes on the laws and resources. | en |
