abstract="AIMS: To examine the effectiveness of an augmented home visiting program in preventing intimate partner violence among Latinx mothers by nativity. <br><br>BACKGROUND: Intimate partner violence diminishes home visit programs' effectiveness. Immigrant Latinx mothers are especially vulnerable and need culturally tailored prevention. <br><br>METHODS: We performed secondary analyses of 33 U.S.-born and 86 foreign-born Latinx mothers at baseline, 1-year, and 2-year follow-up in a longitudinal randomized controlled trial of the Nurse Family Partnership program augmented with nurse-delivered Within My Reach relationship education, and violence screening and referrals. We estimated proportional odds models via generalized estimating equations on total physical and sexual victimization and/or perpetration forms (an ordinal variable), adjusting for intervention, wave, age, and education. <br><br>RESULTS: The intervention-nativity interaction was not significant (p=0.953). Foreign-born status was associated with lower reported violence at baseline (Adjusted Odds Ratio: 0.29, 95% Confidence Interval: 0.13-0.67, p=0.004). This association was marginally significant at 1-year follow-up (0.43; 0.17-1.08, p=0.072) and not significant at 2-year follow-up (0.75; 0.33-1.67, p=0.475). <br><br>CONCLUSIONS: This augmented program was not effective for Latinx immigrants by nativity. Their nativity gap diminished over time. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING MANAGEMENT: Nursing leaders should support culturally-tailored home visiting programs to detect and prevent intimate partner violence affecting Latinx immigrants.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
