“…Because HIV/AIDS, victimization by violence, drug use, and other challenges homeless women face overlap, services must address multiple problems simultaneously Huntington, Moses, & Veysey, 2005;Maman et al 2000;Wenzel et al, 2004a;Wenzel, Hambarsoomian, D'Amico, Ellison, & Tucker, 2006). Homeless women of color who have been physically victimized, who use drugs, and who rely on avoidant coping strategies should ideally receive attention for these risk factors in programs that can address multiple problems (Goldberg, 1995;Tucker et al, 2006).…”

Sexual Risk among Impoverished Women: Understanding the Role of Housing Status

et al. 2006

HIV/AIDS increasingly affects women, and housing status is important to understanding HIV risk behaviors among women. The goal of this study is to enhance understanding of the association between housing status and a key sexual risk behavior, having multiple sex partners, by investigating the extent to which housing status differences can be accounted for by hypothesized explanatory factors. In a probability sample of 833 women in Los Angeles, results indicated that homeless African American and Hispanic women had from two to almost five times greater odds than low-income housed women of having multiple sex partners in the past 6 months. These disparities in risk behavior were accounted for by housing status differences in perceived susceptibility to HIV/AIDS, recent victimization by physical violence, drug use severity, and avoidant coping. Findings provide further evidence that interventions should address a multifaceted context of HIV risk for impoverished women.

“…Trauma-informed services are those that respect the needs of survivors as affected by their history with traumatic experiences and provide interventions in ways that are safe and quick to build rapport. These are different from trauma-specifi c services, which are those services designed to specifi cally address the trauma and its related problems (Harris & Fallott, 2001;Huntington, Moses, & Veysey, 2005). Through collaborative relationships with survivors, the goal of trauma-informed services is to help set the stage for addressing current trauma-based symptoms, as well as the concerns that caused the client to seek help initially.…”

Over the last five years, a new paradigm has emerged in social services. Numerous social service providers are now being asked to provide treatment within a framework of trauma-informed care. Trauma-informed services recognize the pervasive impact of current and previous violence on the everyday lives of many clients. Such services prioritize the establishment of a safe, trusting relationship where trauma can be disclosed. Trauma-informed services also account for the potential effects of clients’ experiences of violence and trauma on their relationship to treatment and to treatment providers. This article describes trauma-informed services and the potential that Motivational Interviewing (MI), an evidence-based, client-centered, and guiding communication style, holds for utilization within trauma-informed work. A case vignette is provided which demonstrates primary MI skills that can be used to create a climate of safety and trust, and effectively elicit and strengthen clients’ motivation for change. A discussion of the case and ethical aspects associated with MI in trauma-informed work is also provided. In addition, suggestions are made as to the potential MI holds for further use with traumatized clients.

“…The development and description of the integrated interventions have been described in greater detail by Veysey and Clark (2004). After careful analyses of the services offered at the intervention sites, it was determined that the key element was the integration of trauma, mental health, and substance abuse issues in the intervention (Huntington, Moses, & Veysey, 2005). The intervention sites chose comparison agencies that served similar clients with care-as-usual services in the same or nearby communities (Morrissey et al, 2005).…”
