dc.description.abstractMen’s domestic and family violence (DFV) perpetrator intervention group programs are an integral part of the DFV sector (Chung et al., 2020). Working in men’s DFV perpetrator intervention group programs can increase the safety of women and children by working with men to stop their reoffending as part of a wider, integrated systems response (Mackay et al., 2015). To be effective, however, this work requires specialist skills, experience, awareness of gendered power dynamics, and resilience (Apps & Gregory, 2011; A. Taylor et al., 2020). Facilitators of these programs must be equipped with knowledge and skills that help them manage such a demanding and challenging role. Practice principles and standards<br/ >recommend that Facilitators are guided and supported in their roles through access to professional supervision provided by their organisation (see, e.g., Department of Child Safety, Youth and Women [Queensland], 2020, p. 10). Researchers have explored the role of supervision in this unique workforce (Conley, 2012; Kashkooli-Ellat, 2022; Reimer, 2020; Vlais et al., 2017). However, little attention has been given to the importance of Supervisors’ observation of facilitation practice, nor have any evidence-based resources been produced to guide Supervisors in this. The research in this report contributes to addressing this gap.en

To ensure best practice of service delivery that supports justice in this space, No to Violence and ANROWS have recognised the importance of supervision, especially in reflecting on invitations to collude with participants. In 2021, the Brisbane Domestic Violence Service (BDVS) and YFS Logan are embarking on a 12-month project, funded by WorkUP Queensland, involving the design and delivery of a supervision resource guide that is tailored for perpetrator group facilitation. The evaluation project funded by QUT Centre for Justice will evaluate the design and implementation of this guide through surveys and interviews with facilitators, program coordinators and supervisors.</p><p><strong>Aim</strong></p><p>A clear long-term benefit for the sector is enhanced practice, creating safer outcomes for adult and child victims and survivors. Regular organisational supervision has been recognised as vital for effective practice in the social work space and is particularly important in high-risk work, including in frontline domestic and family violence work.</p><p><strong>Methods</strong></p><p>Two qualitative surveys of group facilitators and interviews with program coordinators and supervisors will provide data to compare with the design of the supervision resource guide.</p><p><strong>Significance</strong></p><p>This evaluation will enable the supervision resource guide to be evidence-based, and aid in its distribution to the wider sector for implementation and guidance for supervisors of DV perpetrator intervention efforts, both locally in Queensland and, hopefully, across Australia. Through its implementation, workers will be upskilled and more training will be provided for supervisors in this space.</p><p><strong>Funding body</strong></p><p>QUT Centre for Justice</p><p><strong>Funding budget</strong><br />$5,714.40</p><p><strong>Project start date</strong></p><p>December 2020</p><p><strong>Expected completion date</strong></p><p>December 2021</p>en
