In response, the Glenn Inquiry sought to gather the voices and experiences of former family violence perpetrators to better understand what motivates positive change, and what can sustain this change, to ensure that family violence perpetrator interventions are successful in supporting perpetrators to refrain from engaging in family violence. Consequently, the Inquiry commissioned Kaitiaki Research and Evaluation to carry out research with former family violence perpetrators. The specific aims of the research were to explore and understand: ▪ possible contribution between early childhood exposure to family violence and adulthood family violence; ▪ what led former perpetrators to acknowledge that family violence is unacceptable and choosing to desist from re-offending; ▪ factors that may have contributed to delaying acknowledgement that family violence is unacceptable; ▪ supports that assisted former perpetrators to change attitudes and behaviours that contributed to family violence; ▪ what has led to the individual’s sustained dissidence from engaging in family violence; and, ▪ from former perpetrators’ perspectives, what systemic changes might be required to prevent family violence."
