Foundation tries to address link between mental illness and domestic violence. The foundation’s annual Sta강원출장안마te of the Community report says one in five women is a victim of domestic violence or sexual assault, and one in six children are victims of sexual assault in the home. But it was unable to find a single study from a federal or state source that directly links mental health diagnoses to domestic violence or sexual assault. While some states do require mental health records to be provided to courts, they tend to be confidential and not subject to privacy or disclosure laws. The California Supreme Court upheld a state law requiring mental health records to be accessible to victims of domestic violence.
The foundation’s survey found that domestic violence cases involvin블랙 잭g mental health issues were nearly 1.3 times higher than those involving physical abuse, physical assault, or rape. Domestic violence is almost twice as common in homes and four times as common in college dorms. (While this is somewhat surprising, it is worth noting that most women reported severe domestic violence, as shown in the National Survey of Family Growth and in a study by the National Women’s Law Center. The New York Times article on domestic violence is very clear on this point.)
The report also found that of all women affected by domestic violence, 85 percent of them experience severe or continuous emotional or physical abuse, and nearly half of the women had an unplanned pregnancy after an attack. The Foundation also finds that among women experiencing sexual assault, 25 percent of the time it was because of mental illness or alcohol use. In cases where there are no immediate family members, the figure is 10 percent. In such cases, the Foundation says, it is difficult to know why a woman may not report the assault. The number of women who say they were raped is roughly similar to the number of rapes that are considered the result of rape: 9.7 percent compared with 16 percent.
But when the Foundation focused solely on intimate partner violence, the numbers for women who experienced assault were nearly a quarter of the data. “This is one of the big caveats to what the data shows,” said the report’s principal researcher and executive director, John B. Anderson, Ph.D. Anderson was part of the founding group of the Mental Health and Abuse Research Coalition. “If we’re looking at domestic violence and sexual assault and sexual assault of women, which are more prevalent, we’re not looking at those 청주출장안마 청주출장샵as having those same levels of risk.”
