Culture and Domestic Violence

Transforming Knowledge Development

Tricia B. Bent-Goodley

Howard University School of Social Work

Cultural competence continues to receive limited attention in domestic violence service provision from research to the evaluation of programs. Yet with changing demo-graphics reflecting larger numbers of people of color and increasing needs for more effective responses, it is critical that we change the way we think about domestic violence. Using a feminist framework, this article examines how knowledge has been developed in domestic violence and its consequence related to service provision and perceptions. The article ends with recommendations as to how to better include culturally competent responses in domestic violence.

Key Words: domestic violence • cultural competence • African Americans
