Accessing sexualized violence services and supports for women in rural Nova Scotia: A qualitative study
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Introduction: Women who experience sexualized violence can face significant barriers to accessing services and supports, including fear of victim blaming, stigma, and fear of re-traumatization. To date, there is a paucity of research that specifically examines the experiences of women accessing sexualized violence services and supports in rural places, and the potential unique or additional barriers they may face. Objectives: The purpose of this qualitative study was to understand the experiences of women living in rural [province] who accessed services or supports after experiencing sexualized violence. Methods: Participants were recruited through community organizations and social media. Interviews were conducted with nine women in Fall 2019. Data were analyzed using feminist-thematic analysis. Results: Findings indicate that the women shared experiences of navigating a fragmented system of services and supports, many reported harmful experiences with the justice system and formal healthcare system, and some also experienced positive experiences with community-based services. Enhancing community-based services is recommended as one key strategy for improving access to sexualized violence services and supports in rural communities.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
