The Expanding Continuum of Gender-Based Violence: Trauma-Informed Care, Volume 2

The second volume of The Expanding Continuum of Gender-Based Violence: Trauma-Informed Care examines the impact of violence on contemporary populations which may previously have been over­looked. In this volume, special focus is given to the intersectionality of vulnerable groups and the impact of marginalization on assessment and treatment. In an effort to bridge gaps in literature, the text addresses cultural influence and socio-political issues while advising on how to best apply the accrued knowledge when interacting with patients. Together, with Volume 1, this text intends to do the following: —Define the problem —Identify causes and risk factors —Design interventions —Disseminate information —Educate students and future professionals
