Abstract
to domestic violence (DV). Part I of the article considers ways in which the
adoption of such approaches in DV contexts can be positive for the parties
involved, while Part II explores some of the caveats. This analysis leads to four
key recommendations for the safe management of TJ informed approaches
to DV. First, comprehensive screening protocols are necessary to ensure that
only appropriate offenders who have the capacity to participate effectively are
screened in to TJ informed programs. Secondly, given the complex nature of DV
and the need for multi-disciplinary and multi-agency responses, information
across these disciplines and agencies must be shared. Thirdly, extensive
training is needed for first responders such as police and community groups,
as well as for judges and program facilitators. Finally, it is important to adopt
practices that allow processes and protocols to be perceived as procedurally
fair to all parties.
