 7.  BATTERED WOMEN IN DISASTER: A CASE STUDY OF GENDERED VULNERABILITY,
 Elaine Enarson paper presented at American Sociological Association, August  1998-11-10
 ABSTRACT  The cycle of domestic violence increases women's housing, economic,  emotional, and physical insecurity, and hence women's vulnerability to the  impacts of disaster. While data are limited, service providers have  reported that violence against women also increases after disasters. Using  open-ended telephone interviewing and a closed-question mail survey of
77  Canadian and US domestic violence programs, this study confirmed the  association. Those shelters most severely impacted by flooding, earthquake,  and hurricane reported both increased service demand, as long as one year  after the event, and decreased organizational resources to respond to women experiencing both disaster and domestic violence. Survey results indicated  low levels of in-house emergency preparedness among these grassroots  women's organizations but strong interest in increasing their disaster
readiness. Strategies for more fully engaging women's services in  community-based disaster mitigation, planning, and response are
suggested.
