This paper evaluates the existing studies on the role of community health workers in sexual violence services. The authors found a lack of research on the topic, though the limited studies indicate that incorporating community health workers may be beneficial. However, more research is needed into the potential issues and harms that may come from community health workers providing services for sexual violence.
