Legal and social service systems rarely acknowledge the status of men as fathers in the conceptualization and delivery of interventions for intimate partner violence (IPV). Large percentages of men who are arrested and mandated to intervention programs for IPV are fathers who continue to live with or have consistent contact with their young children despite aggression and substance use. There are currently no evidence-based treatments that address co-morbid substance abuse and domestic violence perpetration with emphasis on paternal parenting for fathers. This article will describe the components of a new intervention, Fathers for Change, which addresses the co-morbidity of substance abuse, domestic violence, and poor parenting in fathers of young children. Fathers for Change is unique in its focus on the paternal role throughout treatment. A case example and initial feasibility of the intervention will be described to provide an understanding of the key ingredients and the gap this intervention could fill in the field once tested in efficacy trials.
法律和社会服务系统在制定和实施干预亲密伴侣暴力（IPV）的措施时，很少承认男性作为父亲的地位。很大比例的因 IPV 而被捕并被强制参加干预项目的男性是父亲，尽管他们有攻击性和滥用药物的行为，但仍与年幼的孩子生活在一起或保持着持续的联系。目前，没有针对共病物质滥用和家庭暴力行为的循证治疗方法，也没有强调父亲的育儿角色。本文将介绍一种新的干预措施——改变父亲（Fathers for Change）的组成部分，该措施针对的是有年幼子女的父亲共病物质滥用、家庭暴力和不良育儿问题。改变父亲在治疗过程中始终专注于父亲角色，这使其具有独特性。将通过案例示例和干预措施的初步可行性来说明这一点，以便在功效试验中进行测试后，了解该干预措施的关键要素和可能填补该领域空白的地方。
