Notes:	This review of Calgary’s family and sexual violence sector (in Canada) provides a summary of the research and evaluation literature on effective family and sexual violence programming. It aims to set out which programmes work. It gives a definition of ‘best practices’. Programmes and services are grouped as prevention initiatives or interventions. Faith-based responses and coordinated responses to violence (effectiveness of a coordinated justice response such as specialised domestic violence courts, police response, treatment programmes, protection orders and victim advocates) are included. Review includes: violence prevention (best practices for public awareness programmes targeting ethno-cultural communities); violence prevention programmes for children and youth (best practices in child abuse prevention programmes and in bullying prevention programmes); treatment for children exposed to family violence; treatment for men who are abusive (standards in offender treatment, process and accountability, programme content and structure, and programme staff); treatment for adult survivors of child sexual abuse; interventions for abused women (best practices on effective response from an emergency shelter, best practices for groups for abused women, and for a coordinated crisis line); services for Aboriginal peoples; for abused immigrant and culturally diverse women; for lesbians, gay men, bisexual and transgendered people; and for abused people with disabilities.
