摘要
2019 年冠状病毒病(COVID-19)大流行迫使受害者服务机构制定新的服务提供协议,其中包括远程/远程医疗服务。我们对美国一个以非洲裔美国人为主的城市机构中的性侵犯倡导者进行了 N = 12 次定性访谈,以了解他们如何调整服务以满足社区需求。专题分析表明,该机构对长期中断面对面服务准备不足。尽管该机构能够创建远程保健选项,但许多客户并不具备利用这些服务的经济和技术资源。倡导者报告说,幸存者表示强烈倾向于亲身服务,因为亲身服务能提供更多的隐私和保密性。这个城市社区普遍存在的数字鸿沟限制了幸存者获得全面服务的机会,并危及他们的安全。
Organizational Readiness and Response During COVID-19: Reflections From a Sexual Assault Agency Serving a Predominately African American Community.
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic forced victim service organizations to establish new service provision protocols to include remote/telehealth services. We conducted N = 12 qualitative interviews with sexual assault advocates working in an urban agency in a predominately African American U.S. city to understand how they adapted services to meet the needs of their community. A thematic analysis revealed this organization was under-prepared for prolonged interruption of in-person services. Even though this agency was able to create telehealth options, many clients did not have the financial and technological resources to utilize these services. Advocates reported that survivors expressed a strong preference for in-person services, which afford more privacy and confidentiality. The pervasive digital divide within this urban community limited survivors' access to comprehensive services and jeopardized their safety.
期刊介绍:
We all face the difficult problem of understanding and treating the perpetrators and victims of violence behavior. Violence and Victims is the evidence-based resource that informs clinical decisions, legal actions, and public policy. Now celebrating its 25th year, Violence and Victims is a peer-reviewed journal of theory, research, policy, and clinical practice in the area of interpersonal violence and victimization. It seeks to facilitate the exchange of information on this subject across such professional disciplines as psychology, sociology, criminology, law, medicine, nursing, psychiatry, and social work.
