Standards for Batterer Programs

A Review and Analysis

JULIET B. AUSTIN

This article reports on findings obtained from a review and analysis of 37 standards for batterer programs in the United States that were in existence as of September 1997. Standards were examined for their content, organized into categories and in addition, by common themes. Information obtained through telephone interviews served to further clarify and expand on the written documents. Standards were distinguishable by whether program compliance to them was mandatory or voluntary. Elements of standards included: (a) accounts about their history, development, and purpose; (b) the protocol and procedures programs should follow; and (c) directives pertaining to program staff ethics and qualifications. The article concludes by providing both an analysis and discussion of the standards, including some suggestions for their improvement.
