Accurate data on the background, risk factors, and prevalence of commercial sexual exploitation of children (CSEC) in the United States are rare and difficult to collect due to their complex, underground nature. Black and Brown youth, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) youth, youth with previous experiences of child and sexual abuse, youth in the foster care system, and those who have run away and/or are experiencing homelessness are disproportionately affected by CSEC, thus warranting special attention. Prevention and response strategies for CSEC often do not keep these marginalized populations in mind or include survivors in the development and implementation of strategies. This study explores the CSEC prevention and response landscape in Atlanta, Georgia. Data were collected from 12 key informants through Zoom and in-depth, telephone interviews. Interviews were held with key stakeholders working in the field of CSEC through the legal system, state employees, and anti-trafficking organizations. Emergent themes were developed by using inductive coding. Themes included: (1) the perceived risk profile of at-risk youth is changing; (2) stereotypes and stigma are barriers to appropriate and comprehensive CSEC response; (3) youth with higher risk factors are in need of greater support; (4) initiatives must be survivor-led and community based; and (5) systemic factors must be addressed to prevent CSEC. Participants observed demographic changes across individuals identifying as sexually exploited, and/or those seeking stakeholders' services. Youth often experience stigma due to their racial and socio-economic identities; due to systemic racism, Black and Brown youth are often treated as adults and not as victims. Stakeholders perceived gaps in services and support for pregnant youth, youth identified as potential recruiters for commercial sexual exploitation, youth identifying as LGBTQ, and those with substance abuse problems and mental health disorders. All participants described the need to create and fund community-based programs that focus on basic needs such as shelter, and sustainable life-enrichment programs. This study underscores the need for research focused on specific populations at risk of CSEC and the need to resolve systemic issues disproportionately affecting youth vulnerable to and experiencing CSEC.

Although federal laws provide protections for victims of partner firearm threats, there is a “boyfriend loophole” that leaves some victims unprotected. Women were recruited from across the United States using an online survey to examine differences in scope and frequency of firearm threats, firearm-related risks, and fear level among those who did (n = 151), and who did not (n = 118), live with their abusive partner. Results showed that: (1) although frequencies varied depending on the gun threat type, there were no differences in prevalence among those who did, compared to those who did not, live with their abusive partner; (2) over half of the victims in the study reported that their partner had carried the firearm in public and victims reported their partner engaged in an average of five risky gun handling practices; (3) the majority of victims believed their partner's access to firearms increased their danger and two-fifths indicated that the firearm threats made them less likely to talk to law enforcement; and (4) in the multivariate analysis higher fear levels were associated with increased scope and frequency of gun threats, physical/sexual severity, and higher perceived abuser capability of harm for both groups. Study results suggest that partner abuse victims experience a range of threats with a gun, as well as firearm-related risks, and that victims who do not live with their abuser—those who are left unprotected by the boyfriend loophole—have similar firearm-related risks as women who live with their abuser even though they are younger and spend less time in the abusive relationship.

Women who have experienced more physical and psychological violence are at a higher risk of stress and depression and cannot develop a relationship with their fetuses. The present study aimed to compare maternal–fetal attachment (MFA) and domestic violence (DV) against Iranian pregnant women (IPW) and Afghan pregnant women (APW). This cross-sectional study was conducted on IPW and APW referred to Kerman health care facilities in 2019. The multistage, cluster-stratified sampling method was used and 300 questionnaires were distributed, of which 12 incomplete questionnaires were excluded. A total of 146 IPW and 142 APW completed the study. Data collection tools were the demographic and clinical information questionnaire, maternal–fetal attachment scale, and domestic violence questionnaire. Results showed that the mean scores of MFA in IPW and APW were 92.87 ± 12.55 and 103.6 ± 19.65, respectively. In addition, the mean scores of DV in IPW and APW were 9.63 ± 8.13 and 10.51 ± 9.1, respectively. A significant reverse correlation was found between the MFA and DV variables in IPW (r = −0.18, p < 0.05) and APW (r = −0.14, p < 0.05). A significant difference was found between the MFA and job status, as well as between DV and husband's addiction, in IPW. In addition, a significant difference was observed between MFA and unplanned pregnancy as well as between DV, unplanned pregnancy, history of physical illness, housing status, fetal gender, and number of children in APW. Multiple regression models showed that among DV components, verbal violence had more significant correlation with MFA in IPW and sexual violence had more significant correlation with MFA in APW. This study examined the MFA and DV against IPW and APW. Results suggest that national and local policies in Iran should examine factors contributing to DV against IPW and APW and focus on how to reduce the impact of DV on MFA.
遭受更多身体和心理暴力的妇女面临更高的压力和抑郁风险，无法与胎儿建立关系。本研究旨在比较伊朗孕妇(IPW)和阿富汗孕妇(APW)的母胎依恋(MFA)和家庭暴力(DV)。本横断面研究是在2019年对克尔曼医疗机构的IPW和APW进行的。采用多阶段整群分层抽样方法，共发放问卷300份，剔除不完整问卷12份。共有146名IPW和142名APW完成了这项研究。数据收集工具为人口统计学和临床信息问卷、母胎依恋量表和家庭暴力问卷。结果IPW和APW的MFA平均评分分别为92.87±12.55和103.6±19.65。此外，IPW和APW的DV平均得分分别为9.63±8.13和10.51±9.1。IPW (r = - 0.18, p < 0.05)和APW (r = - 0.14, p < 0.05)的MFA和DV变量之间呈显著负相关。在IPW中，MFA与工作状态、家暴与丈夫成瘾之间存在显著差异。此外，MFA与计划外妊娠、家庭暴力、计划外妊娠、身体病史、住房状况、胎儿性别、子女数量在APW中存在显著差异。多元回归模型显示，在家庭暴力构成要素中，言语暴力与家庭暴力行为的相关性更显著，性暴力与家庭暴力行为的相关性更显著。本研究考察了MFA和DV对IPW和APW的影响。结果表明，伊朗的国家和地方政策应研究导致家庭暴力与IPW和APW的因素，并将重点放在如何减少家庭暴力对MFA的影响上。
