Men's Domestic Violence Treatment

The Court Referral Component

JERRY FINN

University of North Carolina—Greensboro

A survey of 14 (all) men's domestic violence treatment (MDVT) programs in North Carolina revealed considerable variation in the court linkage component of the programs. While all programs had established such a linkage, they differed considerably in training and function of the court liaison, frequency of referrals, sentencing patterns, accountability to the court, and court-ordered fees. Program diversity was discussed in terms of laissez-faire program development and the use of discretion by court personnel. Recommendations for MDVT programs focused on community and court education, program evaluation, liaison training, and the need for data collection concerning sentencing patterns in spouse abuse cases.
