In this special issue selected presentations from the symposium celebrating the twentieth anniversary of the Feminism and Legal Theory Project. The project was founded in 1984 by professor Martha A. Fineman. Fineman's vision created and sustains the rich tradition of focusing a feminist, legal and theoretical lens on issues ranging from the socio-economic and geopolitical to the institutional and metaphysical.
Using structural equation modeling, two models of the relationship between trauma, attachment, substance use, risk behavior, and criminal justice involvement among young adult women were tested. Implications for intervention and prevention are addressed.
