• Abstract: Objective: to identify the prevalence of sexual violence against people with disabilities in Espírito Santo and the associated factors. Method: analytical, cross-sectional study, carried out with cases reported in Espírito Santo of sexual violence against people with disabilities from 2011 to 2018. Results: bivariate analysis was performed using the Chi-square test and multivariate analysis using Poisson regression, using the software Stata 14.0. Sexual violence corresponded to 12.7% of cases (N: 207; 95% CI: 11.2-14.4), with female victims standing out (PR: 3.45; 95% CI: 2.36-5.04) and black or brown race/color (PR: 1.47; 95% CI: 1.09-1.99). Conclusion: children and adolescents were more vulnerable compared to the elderly. Among the aggressors, 99% were men, with alcohol use and non-repetition of the offense. Factors related to the victim and aggression are associated with greater exposure to violence and recognizing these can help health professionals in identifying cases.
