Spouse Battering and Chemical Dependency: Dynamics, Treatment, and Service Delivery

Abstract

Summary Similarities and differences between the chemical dependence and spouse battering populations are noted. Treatment models and practices are also compared. One major difference is that chemical dependency programs emphasize the concept of powerlessness while family violence programs focus upon the need for control and empowerment. Suggestions are presented that could help integrate these two services.
