Domestic violence education and treatment should be an integral part of reducing violence against women. Research shows there is little published information concerning domestic violence programs aimed at minority men. The Canadian Federal government made a commitment to address the needs of both victims and offenders of domestic violence, by establishing the Ma Mawi/Stony Mountain Project, the first domestic violence program sensitive to the needs and values of Aboriginal men within the Federal correctional system in North America. A full evaluation of the Ma Mawi/Stony Mountain Project, after it had been in operation for 3 years, indicated that this program was a success because of the collaboration between the institution and the community agency, because Aboriginal peoples believe in the project’s holistic approach focusing on healing rather than punishment, and because the program operated within an overall framework of cultural competence. Culturally competent programming is essential in combating the domestic violence against women conducted by a wide range of minority males. Notes, references
