2445 Park Avenue South Minneapolis, Minnesota 55404 USA
2445 Park Avenue South Minneapolis, Minnesota 55404 USA The Domestic Abuse Project is a long-term, two phase treat ment program for violent men and their families. Although much atten tion has been given to the victims of domestic violence, only recently has the focus shifted to the perpetrators. Group intervention is the preferred modality when confronting the perpetrators' intense denial and minimi zation and discussion of their shame. This article addresses the implementa tion of Phase One, a structured didactic eight-week men's group that focuses on stopping domestic violence through learning new alternatives to aggressive behavior.
