Description

The King County Sexual Assault Resource Center’s (KCSARC) legal advocacy program assists individuals who have been sexually assaulted to navigate the justice system and serves a diverse clientele. Research suggests that there exists differences between ethnic groups in the qualitative psychological reactions to trauma, prevalence of post-trauma victimization, and use of therapeutic and tangible services. Thus, the purpose of our study is to examine the association between ethnicity, the three critical outcome variables (coping self-efficacy, perceived social support, and legal advocate satisfaction) and posttraumatic recovery.
