Improving Violence Intervention Outcomes by Integrating Alcohol Treatment

Gregory L. Stuart

Brown Medical School and Butler Hospital

There is extensive empirical and theoretical support for a link between alcohol use and intimate partner violence. Recent innovations in the assessment of these constructs have shown a strong temporal link between alcohol use and intimate partner violence. The majority of men participating in batterer intervention programs have alcohol problems, and these men are at very high risk for violence recidivism. Research has shown substantial decreases in partner violence among alcoholics subsequent to obtaining alcohol treatment. It is likely that violence outcomes could be significantly improved by incorporating alcohol treatment as a standard component of batterer intervention programs.

Key Words: intimate partner violence • alcohol use • substance abuse • batterer intervention
