Briefing note: 3
Despite the aims of most British domestic violence perpetrator
programmes (DVPPs) being to increase the safety of women and children, and four of Westmarland and Kelly’s (2012) measures of DVPP success being linked directly to children (see also briefing note 1 in this series), there is a paucity of research available on children’s perspectives of domestically violent dads (Houghton, 2008) and DVPPs in particular.
The aim of this briefing note is to add to this emerging body
of literature and include both professionals and children and
young people’s views of the effects of domestic violence
perpetrator programmes. (from the paper). See the website link for more information about Project Mirabal.
