Why focus on men and their behaviour? • Historical and institutional context • Criminal Justice System : 96.4% of dv incidents did not lead to conviction • 869 incidents, 222 arrests, 60 charged, 31 convicted, 4 custodial sentences • The CJ system treats non-domestic violence more seriously in terms of custodial sentences (Hester) • Men are seeking help from agencies but are not being referred to appropriate services Against Domestic Violence and Abuse – ADVA Partnership, Devon www.adva.org.uk

  7. REPAIR in DevonCommunity Perpetrator Programme • Programme for men (riskassessment; one to one; group) • Support for women (face to face, phone & pattern changing group work) • Support for cyp (individual sessions) • Supervision (fortnightly, 2 hours) • Agency awareness (to increase referrals) Against Domestic Violence and Abuse – ADVA Partnership, Devon www.adva.org.uk

  8. REPAIR Programme • 5 modules, each module has six sessions. • The focus of the 5 modules is on the following forms of abusive behaviour: • 1) intimidation, coercion and threats • 2) emotional abuse • 3) male privilege • 4) sexual abuse • 5) using children and abusive parenting • Programme flexibility enables depth . The belief is that to generate genuine change to our identity is an emotional as well as a cognitive process. Against Domestic Violence and Abuse – ADVA Partnership, Devon www.adva.org.uk
