L.V. Oscar. Research focuses on women of color There may soon be more help for Latina women who are victims of intimate partner violence. A $1.75 million, four-year grant has been given to the Oregon Health & Science University Center for Health Disparities Research to d e velop improved interventions to reduce the health disparities among Latinas who are battered by their partners. "Latina Americans have dispro portionately higher rates of pov erty, stresses related to accultura tion and discrimination, and higher vulnerability to intimate partner violence than European-American women,” said Nancy Glass PhD., M.P.H., R.N., assistant professor, OHSU School of Nursing. Glass is principal investigator of the study and co-director of the new disparities center with Corliss McKeever, M.S.W., president and chief executive officer o f the Afri can American Health Coalition Inc. and assistant professor, OHSU School of Nursing. "Latinas are known to underuse these services because they lack health insurance, or because of lan guage and cultural barriers and dis trust of formal systems. Thus, Latinas require intervention ser vices in nontraditional arenas,” Glass said. The Center for Health Disparities Research at OHSU School of Nurs ing was created in December 2003. : kmhd • )• • • • • • • • • • 0 GET YOUR HANDS ON THE BEST... listen on the web, www.kmhd.org Cox & Cox Funeral Chapel 2736 NE Rodney, Portland, Oregon 97212 Ornia Fay' Dabner (503) 281-4891 C lassifieds Marfin Cleaning Service The Importance of Pre-Arranging 1.
