ImportanceAdult sexual assault (SA) survivors experience numerous emergent health problems, yet few seek emergency medical care. Quantifying the number and types of survivors presenting to US emergency departments (EDs) after SA can inform health care delivery strategies to reduce survivor morbidity and mortality.ObjectiveTo quantify ED use and factors that influenced seeking ED care for adult SA from 2006 through 2019.Design, Setting, and ParticipantsThis cross-sectional study used SA data from the Nationwide Emergency Department Sample from 2006 through 2019, which includes more than 35.8 million observations of US ED visits from 989 hospitals, a 20% stratified sample of hospital-based EDs. The study also used the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s Uniform Crime Reporting Program, which includes annual crime data from more than 18 000 law enforcement agencies representing more than 300 million US inhabitants. The study sample included any adult aged 18 to 65 years with an ED visit in the Nationwide Emergency Department Sample coded as SA. The data were analyzed between January 2020 and June 2022.Main Outcomes and MeasuresAnnual SA-related ED visits, subsequent hospital admissions, and associated patient-related factors (age, sex, race and ethnicity, income quartile, and insurance) were analyzed using descriptive statistics.ResultsData were from 120 to 143 million weighted ED visits reported annually from 2006 through 2019. Sexual assault–related ED visits increased more than 1533.0% from 3607 in 2006 to 55 296 in 2019. Concurrently, admission rates for these visits declined from 12.6% to 4.3%. Female, younger, and lower-income individuals were more likely to present to the ED after SA. Older and Medicaid-insured patients were more likely to be admitted. Overall, the rate of ED visits for SA outpaced law enforcement reporting.Conclusions and RelevanceThis cross-sectional study found that US adult SA ED visits increased from 2006 through 2019 and highlighted the populations who access emergency care most frequently and who more likely need inpatient care. These data can inform policies and the programming needed to support this vulnerable population.

“…In this way, faith supports individual value and dignity in the face of dehumanizing treatment. Because many Christians, especially evangelicals, believe their ultimate identity is in Christ, this religious identity supersedes all other identities, providing a protective measure against de-humanization by affirming a higher order in which human equality is normative (Bracey 2022). But while frames of divine sovereignty and purpose are used to shield Christians of color from the full impact of racism in the workplace, they simultaneously blunt critical consciousness about the racial structures that condition discrimination in the first place.…”

“…More recent research finds that religion operates as a compensatory coping resource and a schema to suppress progressive political views, especially among those lacking social and economic status (Schnabel 2021). Moreover, as Glenn Bracey II (2022) argues, the act of racially marginalized groups insisting on their dignity and humanity—and communicating faith in a higher reality—itself can be seen as a spiritual act of resistance in the face of ongoing systemic racism.…”

Drawing on in-depth interview data from the nationally representative Faith at Work: An Empirical Study, this article contributes to understanding the role of religion in shaping interpretations of and responses to racial discrimination in the workplace. Specifically, it shows how Christians of different racial groups understand the relevance of their faith in coping with perceived racial discrimination in the workplace, and it illuminates the religious frames that respondents employ to “make sense” of perceived racial discrimination at work. We find that Christians of color and White Christians primarily draw on religious frames such as forgiveness and divine sovereignty in response to perceived discrimination but that these frames serve different functions. Some Christians of color also link their faith to a moral conviction to stand up for themselves and others in the workplace. While most studies on the connection between religion and racial discrimination focus on faith as an individual-level coping mechanism and buffering effect, this article also analyzes the implications of religion on racial hierarchies and racial equity efforts in the workplace—including a focus on how religion serves to produce epistemologies of ignorance and support feelings of White victimhood. Our study contributes to the scholarship on racial discrimination and religion by offering new insights into how Christians of different racial groups use faith to cope with perceived racial discrimination at work.
