Article Synopsis
  • Intimate partner violence (IPV) compromises reproductive justice by creating unsafe conditions for women to raise their children, affecting both immediate and long-term well-being for mothers and children.
  • Women, especially those of color, face systemic inequities within education, economy, and legal systems that contribute to their risk of experiencing IPV.
  • The article will analyze national and state data, using reproductive justice as a framework, to explore the effects of institutional inequities related to IPV and suggest possible solutions.

Though some longitudinal data on institutionalized children is available, reports of maltreated young children who are followed over time and assessed with measures of attachment are lacking. This paper presents the clinical course of a set of maltreated fraternal twins who were assessed and treated from 19 months to 30 months of age and then seen in follow-up at 3 and 8 years of age.

Objective: To determine whether published subtypes of attachment disorder can be reliably identified by trained clinicians reviewing data from high-risk populations and to investigate the relationship between disorder classification and standardized measures of attachment behavior.

Method: Twenty or more children aged 18 to 48 months and their primary caregivers were recruited from three sites: a treatment team for maltreated young children (n = 20), a homeless shelter (n = 25), and Head Start centers (n = 24). All dyads completed a semistructured clinical assessment and laboratory and home-based attachment measures.
