Notes:	Scott and Lishak’s brief communication highlights the under representation of fathers as perpetrators of child maltreatment, contrary to the Canadian research results cited. Recently, increasing acknowledgment of the significance of these actions on children has led to a greater focus on intervention programs for the fathers. This has been evaluated in the pre- to post-intervention research study outlined in this paper to observe changes in the fathers’ attitudes, reactions and behaviours. Both the limitations and achievements of this Canadian study of the community-based group treatment program called Caring Dads: Helping Fathers Value their Children:are discussed.
