Partner Violence and Substance Abuse Are Intertwined
View through CrossRef
Research shows that co-occurring partner violence and substance abuse are problems for many women. However, less is known about women’s varied experiences with partner violence and substance abuse. This exploratory, qualitative study investigates these two issues among a sample of 15 women in substance abuse treatment who experienced partner violence. Overall, findings show participants’ experience of violence–substance connections varied in important ways; complicating factors exacerbate both problems; and domestic violence services and substance abuse treatments should account for these variations and complications. We discuss directions for providers, researchers, and policymakers concerned with partner violence or substance abuse.
