dc.description.notesGeneral Overview: :In this conference paper UK speaker, Liz Kelly, raises some critical questions about perpetrator programs, describes a UK project known as the Domestic Violence Intervention Project (DVIP) and discusses some of the research findings regarding evaluation.<br/ ><br/ >Discussion: :The author notes that some politicians are placing huge faith in perpetrator programmes for domestic violence. This may be another way of defining domestic violence as a less serious crime. Most programmes begin from a pro-feminist stance, while a few still use anger management approaches. It is unclear if they work and evaluating them is complicated by the large drop out rate. The DVIP in West London has a women's support service and a violence prevention programme. The women's support service emphasises safety planning and takes a pro-active approach to reaching out to women. The violence intervention programme last for 32 weeks, although men only move to the second stage if they have demonstrated the required involvement, motivation and behaviour. Many men drop out of the programme. The author discusses the literature regarding evaluation, and refers to a study showing that only 21% of participants in four programmes had been neither verbally or physically abusive 30 months later.en
