Prevention of Abuse Program

The Prevention of Abuse in the Family program is a specialized couple therapy program designed to identify and treat couples and families at highest risk for abuse. The goal is to prevent abuse from occurring.

Identifying Potential Abuse
Although all individuals, couples and families experience some problems, it is not always easy to identify which couples and families are at highest risk for abuse and battering.

Distress Signals
Symptoms of abuse arise as individuals, couples and families experience normal developmental stages, face special needs and problems, or are confronted by unexpected crises. Some of the distress signals to look for are:

* Spouses who put their partners down

* Partners who flare up in sudden anger

* Partners who flare up in fights or get into fights when drunk

* Partners who grew up in abusive homes

* Extreme jealousy

* Sexist values and attitudes
