THE DULUTH METHOD aims to STOP domestic Violence
The Duluth Model
What is the Duluth Model ?
In the early 1980s in Northern Minnesota, it was a small community that have been the innovators of the model and found ways of holding abusive partners to account and to keep the victims safe. Ever since then, The Duluth Model has been an ever evolving way of thinking about how communities can come together and to help STOP domestic Abuse.
The Duluth Model is successful because it is grounded in the experience of victims, helps offenders and society change, and pulls the whole community together to respond. When the Duluth Model first began, women told us that they wanted us to work with their partners that helping their partners change is what would most keep them safe. So, we began nonviolence courses to help abusive men look more closely at their actions, intentions and beliefs and the effect their actions had on their partners and others. Because it helps men get to the core of their actions and beliefs, our men’s violence programme is the most replicated programme for men who abuse in the world.
