The purpose of this project was to improve support for victims of domestic violence. To that end, this project developed an evidence-based program to provide information about domestic violence including safe and confidential ways to seek assistance, rights as cohabiting intimate partners, and the resources available to community members. Several approaches were used to develop, validate, and plan for implementation and evaluation of this program, which was developed for 3 sites in Broward and Miami-Dade counties where the project is situated. The program logic model and the social ecological model, including the individual, relationship, community, and societal levels, were used to guide this project. In addition, scholarly works from 2000 to 2013 were selected from ProQuest, CINAHL, Ebscohost, Medline, and Ovid Nursing Journals to develop this program in collaboration with an interdisciplinary team of 7 community stakeholders including a physician, advanced practice nurse, law enforcement officer, pastor, and 3 recovery center directors with knowledge in these areas. Content validation involved incorporating feedback from the project team. The target population for the project includes women and men aged 18 or higher who have experienced domestic violence, homelessness, and drug addiction. Community operationalization of the initiative will be facilitated by implementation and evaluation plans developed as part of this project. The project includes community education that may help organize events and campaigns, increase domestic violence awareness among community members, and influence policy regarding issues pertaining to domestic violence.

Syftet med studien är att på en kommunal nivå undersöka hur arbetet och kompetensen kring hedersrelaterat våld och förtryck ser ut inom socialtjänsten. Fokus är på socialarbetares upplevelser och resonemang kring hedersrelaterat våld. Studien har en kvalitativ forskningsansats och syftet har uppnåtts genom semistrukturerade telefonintervjuer med socialarbetare i 15 kommuner, fördelat på två län. Den insamlade datan har analyserats med hjälp av tematisk analys. Intervjudeltagarnas uttalanden har tolkats med hjälp av Michael Lispkys teori om gräsrotsbyråkrati och handlingsutrymme samt med begrepp som kulturessentialism och postkolonial teori.  Resultatet visar på att det finns särskild kompetens om hedersrelaterat våld och förtryck inom de flesta kommuner men att den ofta är knuten till enskilda handläggare. Det har även framkommit hur viktigt kunskap är för att identifiera och ge rätt stöd i hedersrelaterade ärenden. Gemensamt för de insatser som erbjuds offer, familj och förövare är att få av dem är anpassade för hedersproblematik. De insatser som erbjuds utsatta individer tycks tillgodose deras behov av skydd men tvingar också individen att genomgå stora uppoffringar, därmed finns ett behov av att utveckla och förbättra dessa insatser. Vidare framgår att det finns delade meningar om vad hedersrelaterat våld och förtryck antas bero på samt inom vilka familjer det förekommer. Vissa uttrycker att hedersrelaterat våld endast förekommer inom vissa kulturer och grupper, medan andra menar att så inte är fallet. / The purpose of the following study is to examine how the work is organized on a municipal level and what expertise social workers in different municipalities have about honor-related violence. The focus is on social workers experiences and reasoning about honor-related violence. The study has a qualitative research approach, and the purpose has been achieved by doing semi-structured interviews per telephone with social workers from 15 municipalities, divided into two regions. The collected data has been analyzed through a thematic analysis. The statements of the study participants have been interpreted with help from Michael Lipsky's theory about street-level bureaucracy and discretion and also by the terms culture essentialism and postcolonial theory.  The results show that in most of the municipalities the social workers have special skills about honor-related violence, though the skills are often directly linked to individual employees in the organization. It has also emerged how important knowledge is to be able to identify and to give the right support in honor-related cases. Common for the interventions social services are offering victims, families and perpetrators is that few of them are adjusted for honor-related issues. The interventions that are offered to victims seems to meet their needs of shelter although it comes with great personal sacrifices, therefore there is a need to develop and improve the interventions. Further there are split opinions about what the causes for honor-related violence are and within which groups it occurs. Some of the participants expresses that honor-related violence only occurs in certain cultures and groups, while other claims the opposite.

La violencia hacia las mujeres en el Perú se ha convertido en una problemática social de atención prioritaria. Según la ENDES (Encuesta Demográfica y de Salud Familiar), del año 2010 al año 2018, los casos de violencia física en mujeres se han reducido solo en un 6%, un porcentaje muy bajo para un periodo largo de tiempo. El Centro de Apoyo Integral para la Mujer Víctima de Violencia, se plantea con el fin de ayudar a disminuir la problemática que atraviesa el distrito de Comas en la actualidad, además de la precaria infraestructura de los establecimientos ubicados en este distrito que ofrecen ayuda a las mujeres e hijos que sufren de violencia. En este proyecto se busca que las mujeres y sus hijos, quienes hayan sufrido de algún tipo de violencia, puedan recibir el apoyo que necesiten tales como asistencia psicológica, asistencia legal, asistencia médica, capacitación y albergue con el fin de aportar a su autonomía y a una vida digna y libre de violencia. / Violence against women in Peru has become a social problem of priority attention. According to the ENDES (Demographic and Family Health Survey), from 2010 to 2018, cases of physical violence in women have decreased by only 6%, a very low percentage for a long period of time. The Integral Support Center for Women Victims of Violence, is proposed in order to help reduce the problems that the district of Comas is currently experiencing, in addition to the precarious infrastructure of the establishments located in this district that offer help to women and children who suffer from violence. This project seeks that women and their children, who have suffered some type of violence, can receive the support they need such as psychological assistance, legal assistance, medical assistance, training and shelter in order to contribute to their autonomy and a life with dignity and free from violence. / Tesis

To this end, there has been research carried out, the results of which, include valuable and new advice on how to improve awareness about domestic violence against women.

El presente estudio tuvo como objetivo comparar la resiliencia según él género en 250 hijos de víctimas del terrorismo de la ciudad de Huancayo (46,8% hombres y mujeres el 53,2%), cuyas edades oscilan entre los 20 y 35 años (X=23). Se utilizó la Escala de Resiliencia (ER). Los resultados reportaron que no existen diferencias estadísticamente significativas al comparar los 4 factores de la Resiliencia, Confianza y Sentirse bien solo (t= .48, p =.96, d=.01) Ecuanimidad (t= -.07 p= .94, d= -.01), Aceptación de uno mismo (t= .03, p= .98, d=.00) y Perseverancia (t= .39, p= .70, d=.05) entre hombres y mujeres. Se recomienda seguir realizando investigaciones relacionadas a la resiliencia según el género, no obstante, en la presente no se obtuvo una diferencia en la muestra en base al género. Sin embargo, esta puede ser utilizada como variable, ya que los resultados van a depender de las características de la población y sus vivencias. / This research seeks to compare the resilience according to gender in 250 sons of victims of terrorism from the Huancayo city (46.8% men and 53.2% women), whose ages range between 20 and 35 years (M age = 23). The Resilience Scale (ER) was used. The results reported that there are no statistically significant differences when comparing the 4 factors of Resilience, Confidence and Feeling good alone (t= .48, p =.96, d=.01), Equanimity (t= -.07 p= .94, d=-.01), Self-acceptance (t= .03, p= .98, d=.00) and Perseverance (t=.39, p=.70, d=.05) between men and women. It is recommended to continue conducting research related to resilience according to gender, however, in the present, a difference was not obtained in the sample based on gender. However, this can be used as a variable, since the results will depend on the characteristics of the population and their experiences.

Insatserna till våldsutsatta i nära relation utgår tydligare från kvinnor och deras behov i lagen. Hur yrkesverksamma socionomer betraktar våldsutsatta och vem som är offer kan påverka bemötandet av våldsutsatta. Syftet med studien var att undersöka hur skillnader i behov och insatser till våldsutsatta män respektive kvinnor i våld i nära relation [VINR] uppfattas av yrkesverksamma socionomer. Syftet var också att undersöka hur uppfattningarna om våldsutsatta i VINR kan förstås samt påverka våldsutsatta män respektive kvinnor som söker stöd hos socialtjänsten. Vår teoretiska utgångspunkt var begreppen habitualisering, ytliga och täta behovstolkningar samt Fraser modell om samhällsproblem. Studien hade en kvalitativ ansats och utgick från sju intervjuer med yrkesverksamma socionomer. Empirin analyserades genom en kvalitativ innehållsanalys. Resultatet visar att yrkesverksamma inte upplever att det finns skillnader i behov och insatser till våldsutsatta män respektive kvinnor samtidigt som en djupare analys av empirin visar att skillnader faktiskt finns. Erfarenhet och kunskap är viktigt för förståelsen av problemen. Resultatet visade vidare att mörkertalet inom VINR är stort. Hur yrkesverksamma ser på manlighet, kvinnlighet och tillämpandet av könsneutralitet i förhållande till våldsutsatta kan få negativa konsekvenser för våldsutsatta. Slutsatserna av studiens resultat är att det är viktigt att se problemet framför allt ur ett könstypiskt perspektiv för att synliggöra olika behov hos våldsutsatta män respektive kvinnor. Att i högre utsträckning börja se våldet och inte könet kan, menar vi, vara viktigt för att upptäcka VINR. Samtidigt bör könet, med stöd av vårt resultat och tidigare forskning, ges betydelse vid utformningen av insatser. / Interventions to victims of violence in intimate relationship violence [IRV] issues from women and their needs within the law. How professional sociologists sees the victims and who the see as the victim can effect the treatment of the victims. The purpose of this study was to look into how professional sociologists sees interventions and needs of men and women that are victims of IRV. The purpose was also to see how professional sociologists see victims of IRV and how their outlook on the vitctims effect the men and women seeking help from social services. Our theoretical outlook was the concepts habitualization, thin and thick descriptions of needs as well as Frasers model about societal problems. The had a qualitative approach and we interview seven professional sociologists. The empiricism was analyzed with a qualitative content analysis. The result whos that professional sociologists doesn’t experience any differences in interventions and needs between men and women who are victims of IRV. But in a deeper analysis of the result can we see that there are differences. Experience and knowledge are important in the understanding of IRV. The result showed that the hidden statistics in IRV are big. How the professional sociologists see masculinity, feminimity and how they apply gender neutralityin relation to the vitims can have negative effects on the victim. The conclusion of the study is that it’s important to see the problem above all with a gender typcial perspecitve to spot the needs of men and women who are victims of IRV. To spot the violence and not the fender in a higher extent could be important to spot IRV, according to us. Our study and previous research shows that the gender at the same time must be seen to give purpose to the shaping of interventions.

<p>Syftet med denna uppsats är att utforska socialtjänstens arbete med brottsoffer i Sverige enligt 5 kapitlet 11 § i socialtjänstlagen. I studien undersöktes hur socialsekreterare definierar brottsoffer samt hur de bedömer och prioriterar offrens behov. Det har också varit centralt att studera hur socialsekreterare tolkar och förstår regleringen av socialtjänstens ansvar för brottsoffer. Kvalitativa intervjuer med 18 socialarbetare är grunden för studien. Analysen av socialtjänstens arbete med brottsoffer baseras på ovan nämnda intervjuer. Intervjuerna analyseras med hjälp av rättssociologiska teorier. För att illustrera hur socialsekreterare definierar brottsoffer har teorier om brottsoffer använts i analysen. Studien visar att ett brottsoffer måste vara oskyldig, svag och lida av brottet för att personen skall definieras som brottsoffer av socialsekreterarna. Socialsekreterarna har dock olika prioriteringar. Vissa socialsekreterare baserar sin bedömning efter varje enskilt fall, medan andra socialsekreterare anser att det är specifika målgrupper som ska få hjälp av socialtjänsten. Undersökningen visar också att de brottsoffergrupper som främst får hjälp inom socialtjänsten kvinnor och barn som fallit offer för våld i nära relationer. Stöd till brottsoffer som ges genom socialtjänstens arbete är ofta i syfte för att anpassa de kvinnor och barn som utsätts för våld, såsom kvinnojourer, rådgivning och ekonomiskt stöd.</p> / <p>The purpose of this essay is to explore the social services work with crime victims in Sweden, according to Chapter 5, § 11 of the Social Services Act.
