increased understanding of domestic abuse for the participants

persönliche Entwicklung / Erwerb von sozialen und personalen Kompetenzen

The youth service was age appropriate in helping to ensure that young people were getting information they could understand. Participating in the Riverside youth service, the young people said that they had an increased understanding of domestic abuse. Understanding that they were not to blame for the abuse they experienced and learning new strategies for dealing with feelings of isolation were of more immediate micro-level importance.

The research was developed as a case study drawing on ethnographic methods to observe and make sense of the youth work setting. Data were collected using desk-based review of literature and relevant policy documents, face-to-face and telephone interviews and film animation. Semi-structured interviews were carried out with three staff involved in the youth service. Semi-structured interviews were also carried out with six participants and four partner interviews.
