These resources provide practitioners with an overview of research findings and emerging principles for engaging young men using intimate partner violence (IPV) in interventions. The resources suggest that responses for young men using IPV centre victim-survivor safety, meaningfully and safely engage young men on their terms, and establish age-appropriate and trauma-informed service environments.
This fact sheet informs young people about what intimate partner violence is and what it can look like, as well as where to seek support if experiencing or using intimate partner violence.
Unversity of Western Sydney: This research seeks to understand how to improve service responses to young men aged 16–25 using intimate partner violence (IPV) in Victoria, Australia. The research explores the unique contexts, protective factors and motivators for change for young men using IPV to develop emerging principles for engaging young men using IPV in interventions.
These findings highlight the need for IPV-BI screening, neuropsychological assessment, and targeted education and therapy for this underserved population.
In 2025, Uniting undertook an evaluation of their family services programs to better understand the prevalence and nature of family violence within those services. This followed growing anecdotal evidence that family violence is increasingly present within the families we support.
This report synthesises data from over 3,000 young men (aged 16-25 years) in the United States, United Kingdom and Australia. Our research evidences the role of men and masculinity content, and the influencers creating this content, on the everyday lives of young men, offering new approaches to increasing young men’s wellbeing and reducing associated health harms.
Focusing on MARAM Responsibilities 9 and 10, this session explores how allied workforces can collaboratively assess and manage family violence risk when working with young people who use violence in the home. Presenters discuss how intersecting factors such as disability, mental health, and developmental needs influence practice and response.
The second session of the Centre's 'Centering the Child' Lunch & Learn series explores the importance of child-inclusive approaches in family violence risk assessment and management.
