Abstract
This chapter explores the often-overlooked subpopulations within the domain of sexual assault, shedding light on the experiences of women who conceive in rape, homeless female youth, and male college students. Despite the extensive research attention directed toward sexual violence, these groups have received comparatively less empirical investigation, leaving significant gaps in understanding and intervention. Through a comprehensive review of existing literature and recent research findings, this chapter illuminates the distinct vulnerabilities, challenges, and consequences faced by each understudied population. ©The ahuthors ©Spring.
