| dc.description.notes | This US article discusses the prevention of domestic violence, particularly, to engage men and boys in prevention strategies. It describes early public awareness and prevention, provides a review of research on men’s attitudes toward domestic violence and summarises recent examples in the US to engage men and boys in prevention. It suggests a potential process for analysis of future court policy and programme design for prevention measures to be included in the daily work of judges and court staff. Prevention strategies to change social norms now target teens, young parents and their children, perpetrators and men in general. Some examples of these include: treating children exposed to domestic violence (uses intervention to achieve prevention, focuses on mental health support for children and strengthening protective factors in the children’s environment through work with the parents); providing supports for young and vulnerable parents (in-home and centre-based parenting support programmes, nurse home visitation programmes); strengthening of mentoring, parenting education and other violence prevention strategies for vulnerable youth; violence prevention services in re-entry programmes for youth aged 14-24 who leave detention in the juvenile justice system or incarceration in a state prison; and public education and leadership programmes targeting men, teens and children. Research on a national public opinion poll of 912 American men explored men’s reactions to various media segments and a series of 5 focus groups with men found that men were willing to intervene directly in violent situations if they knew one of the parties. It also showed that men were willing to participate in community and public efforts to stop violence against women such as to petition elected officials to strengthen anti-domestic violence laws, and to talk with children about healthy relationships. They were least likely to participate in a rally. Three missions arose from the polling research: 1. involve men directly as models of violence prevention behaviour and mentors; 2. elicit a public, personal commitment from men to stand against violence; and 3. provide resources and build the capacity of violence prevention advocates to work with men. | en |
