Existing data suggest that large numbers of American Indian women have been sexually victimized. According to a study, American Indian women experience more rape, by both strangers and intimate partners, than other U.S. racial and ethnic groups. This paper summarizes the barriers facing and resources available to American Indian victims of sexual victimization, with a focus on systemic barriers found in the organizations and communities most likely to serve native women.
