A serious of <a href=\"https:\/\/collections.durham.ac.uk\/files\/r2hx11xf281\">recommendations were published as a result <\/a>of the findings. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/government\/publications\/standards-for-domestic-abuse-perpetrator-interventions\/standards-for-domestic-abuse-perpetrator-interventions-accessible\">The Home Office Standards for Domestic Abuse Perpetrator Interventions<\/a> in the UK have since included the need for services to develop interventions that are more accessible to a neurodiverse population.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size\">The aim of the study was to identify neurodivergent-led organisations &#8211; wherever they are in the world &#8211; who have experiences or views on domestic abuse interventions for autistic\/ADHD (without learning disabilities) male perpetrators and\/or the support for their families. Expertise in domestic abuse was not a requirement for taking part in this study.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size\">There is a gap in research in knowledge about neurodivergent-led organisations\u2019 experiences and perspectives in this regard, and what they consider to be a neurodivergent responsive intervention and pathways for these men and their families. This study a addresses this gap in knowledge and practice by asking expert, organisations who support neurodivergent people about their experiences and perspectives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The final report can be found here: <a href=\"http:\/\/Designing from the margins Neurodivergent-led Organisations on Domestic Abuse Perpetrator Programmes\">Designing from the margins Neurodivergent-led Organisations on Domestic Abuse Perpetrator Programmes<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Experiences and perspectives on supporting neurodivergent male perpetrators of domestic abuse, victims, and interventions Welcome Welcome to the research project page for the study &#8216;Neurodivergent-led organisations&#8217; experiences and perspectives on neurodivergent male perpetrators of domestic abuse, victims, and interventions&#8217; Background and Rationale Domestic Abuse Perpetrator Programmes (DAPPs) have been almost exclusively developed with a neurotypical<\/p>\n<div class=\"entry-read-more\"><span class=\"read-more\"><a href=\"https:\/\/nicolerenehan.com\/?page_id=395\" class=\"more-link\">Read More&nbsp;<i class=\"fas fa-long-arrow-alt-right\"><\/i><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<p><!-- entry-read-more --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":255,"menu_order":1,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-395","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nicolerenehan.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/395","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nicolerenehan.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nicolerenehan.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nicolerenehan.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nicolerenehan.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=395"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/nicolerenehan.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/395\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":424,"href":"https:\/\/nicolerenehan.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/395\/revisions\/424"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nicolerenehan.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/255"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nicolerenehan.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=395"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
