“…Fourth, in order to provide well-informed referrals, clinicians should familiarize themselves with the resources available at their institutions and within their communities for LGBT victims of IPV. While many emergency departments, hospitals, and clinics have IPV advocacy programs, such programs have historically failed to respond adequately to abuse in LGBT groups 26 . Providers should routinely inquire about the availability of resources, such as information, counseling, and shelter services, that are sensitive to LGBT individuals.…”

The medical community's efforts to address intimate partner violence (IPV) have often neglected members of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) population. Heterosexual women are primarily targeted for IPV screening and intervention despite the similar prevalence of IPV in LGBT individuals and its detrimental health effects. Here, we highlight the burden of IPV in LGBT relationships, discuss how LGBT and heterosexual IPV differ, and outline steps clinicians can take to address IPV in their LGBT patients.

“…Substance use treatment providers and violence prevention programs can offer easier access and develop new methods to jointly address these problems, 46,[49][50][51] while being accepting of sexual minority women. 45 In our framework, multiple recent sex partners, transactional sex, and substance use mediated the association with violence. We found support for this model, as these highrisk behaviors attenuated the effect sizes and had significant indirect effects.…”

“…43 Ard & Makadon provide recommendations for IPV screening in lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender (LGBT) patients; 44 these women may face unique barriers to reporting abuse or find that resources do not address their needs. [44][45][46] As Jewkes recently noted, increased routine IPV screening by clinicians has had little benefit, recommending research into new approaches. 47 From a syndemic perspective, violence prevention must take into account sexual minority status, high-risk sex, substance use and environmental factors, such as poverty, to be effective.…”

Our research examines the possible association of sexual orientation and self-reported sexual harassment, sexual assault, intimate partner psychological abuse, and intimate partner physical abuse of college students from a northeastern university in the United States. Understanding the prevalence of these behaviors within this age group is important, as developing appropriate college policy to reduce these actions at this time may be beneficial for future prevention. This study also allows for one of the few true comparisons between those students who identified as sexual minority and non-sexual minority college students 1 . A total of 1881 college students were surveyed. Classes were randomly selected and surveys were administered to students in those classes. Gender specific models were also analyzed to examine if the relationship between sexual orientation and victimization differs for males and females. The results from the analyses support the prediction that sexual minority students were more likely to report all four types of victimization than non-sexual minority students. Sexual minority students were about four times more likely to report sexual assault, two times more likely to report sexual harassment and physical abuse, and about 1.5 times more likely to report psychological abuse. Sexual minority males were more likely to report sexual assault (nine times), sexual harassment (3.5 times), and physical abuse (twice as likely). Sexual minority females were about twice as likely to report sexual assault, physical abuse, and psychological abuse.
