SUD. When attempting to develop culturally appropriate intervention and prevention strategies, it is essential that mental health professionals understand the specific risk conferred by each IPV type and the specificity of that risk for SUD development across demographic characteristics. This research can inform efforts to tailor interventions specific to the individual – ensuring the content of such programs highlights populationspecific risk factors. Given the paucity of research in this area, and the potential for the identification of modifiable risk factors to lead to reductions in the impact of childhood IPV on SUDs, further research, and consideration of tailoring prevention and intervention efforts to different populations, is warranted.
