Study Summary

The focus of this project is to elucidate the gaps in care and enhance the provision of FGC-related health care and social services for women in Arizona who have experienced FGC; engaging the Somali and Somali Bantu communities. As of 2012, Arizona ranked 7th in the US for Somali refugee resettlement. The Refugee Women's Health Clinic (RWHC) is a nationally recognized best practice model for refugee women's health, providing specialized care for women with FGC. The project will accomplish four outcomes throughout its three-year duration: 1: Identify specific FGC-related health care needs and available health and social services for women in Arizona who have experienced FGC to improve services to FGC-affected communities; 2: Identify gaps, barriers, and/or assets in FGC-related health care and social services for women in Arizona who have experienced FGC to provide improved services to FGC-affected communities; 3: Create and implement FGC education efforts so that providers improve culturally competent care for women who have experienced FGC in health care and social service settings; and, 4: Create and implement community outreach and educational programs among communities affected by FGC to increase awareness of FGC-related health issues, prevention and services available. To inform these initiatives, an established infrastructure exists through the Refugee Women's Health Community Advisory Coalition (RWHCAC), a team of more than 60 stakeholders from various local ethnic organizations, refugee resettlement and voluntary agencies, mental health and social services agencies, and academic partners and including local voluntary resettlement agencies (VOLAGs) and Ethnic Community-Based Organizations (ECBOs). RWHCAC will be (a) involved in the planning/design of the project, (b) encouraged to assume responsibility to identify additional Community Mobilizers, (c) engaged in aligning educational material content to cultural standards, and (d) engaged in evaluating the proj
