| Notes: | Provides a definition of ‘disability’ and ‘abuse’ before outlining the prevalence and nature of violence against women with disabilities. Highlights the absence of research into the effectiveness of intervention strategies adopted to address the issue and presents a critique of previous studies conducted in this area, mainly from North American centres, particularly Canada. Concludes that the specific needs and experiences of women with disabilities is an area in urgent need of further resources and research. |
