Empower the perpetrators of domestic violence to prevent recidivism

Empower the perpetrators of domestic violence to prevent recidivism

It is a unique system in France: a support and prevention center entirely dedicated to people prosecuted for domestic violence, the vast majority of whom are men. The center, which is located in Lille, can accommodate these alleged perpetrators. And they are followed, in a reinforced way, by a multidisciplinary team to avoid recidivism. Comprehensive care for several months, before their judgment, to help them take responsibility and get out of denial.

Every year in France, more than 200,000 women are victims of domestic violence.

“Empowering the perpetrators of domestic violence to prevent recidivism”, a great report by Lise Verbeke. (Replay)
