Abstract:
:This report describes a domestic violence program in an urban Indian health center. The failure of office-based interventions and the importance of developing interventions that are sensitive to the needs of this population are discussed. Successful interventions including home visits and a domestic violence group that incorporated American Indian traditions and values are presented. :This article describes a domestic violence program located in an urban health center in India. Funded by the Indian Health Service, this health center offers a wide range of services to the community including a medical clinic with a full-time nurse, social service program, and mental health and alcohol prevention programs. Its domestic violence program provides social service initiatives such as housing, emergency clothing, and transportation assistance. This paper discusses the failure of office-based interventions and the value of developing interventions that are sensitive to the needs of the target group. Moreover, the study outlines successful interventions, such as home visits and a domestic violence group who integrated the traditions and values of the American Indian population.
