Cumulative Victimization and Women's Health Risks: Development of an Intervention
The goal of the BSHAPE study is to test a trauma informed, culturally tailored,
multicomponent program entitled BSHAPE (Being Safe, Healthy, And Positively Empowered) for
immigrant survivors of cumulative trauma.
multicomponent program entitled BSHAPE (Being Safe, Healthy, And Positively Empowered) for
immigrant survivors of cumulative trauma.
The central hypothesis is that the BSHAPE intervention will promote immigrant women's safety
and health (e.g..,improved mental health, reduced physiological impact of stress and health
inequities (especially reproductive-sexual health and HIV)), thus leading to overall
empowerment.
The study will:
1. Conduct a feasibility and acceptability evaluation of the BSHAPE intervention.
2. Test the BSHAPE intervention for large scale implementation in community-based clinics
and programs serving immigrant women.
The impact of BSHAPE will be evaluated in comparison to usual care in promoting safety and
health outcomes among immigrant women with cumulative trauma experiences at post-intervention
and at 6 and 12 months follow up.
