Why She Stays or Goes Back

She may stay because she feels guilty about the failure of the marriage/relationship.

She sincerely believes that she must give 110% to make the relationship/marriage work. But it is not up to her alone. As long as her abuser is treating her abusively and violently, the 'relationship' will require exactly 100% of her, including her freedom, her health, her safety, her heart, her soul, her spirit, and even her very life. Nothing she does or doesn't do can make him stop abusing her or make the relationship what she wants it to be. It's up to the abuser to take responsibility for the abuse, and for stopping it. Only then may the relationship possibly begin to be healthy.

Welcome to AAVIPnet

Presented by the Alabama Association of Violence Intervention Programs

The Alabama Association of Violence Intervention Programs was founded in 1997 as a Non-Profit, 501(c)3 organization for the following purposes:

To maintain and improve the quality of intervention programs for perpetrators of violence in Alabama
To help establish intervention programs for adults and adolescents within the state where none currently exist
To provide education, mutual feedback, and the enhancement of working relationships among agencies
To reduce violence and assist Alabama in establishing and maintaining standards statewide, based on the predominant findings of current research.

We present this site to inform the public about our Association, opportunities for training pertinent to domestic violence perpetrator intervention, the Alabama Standards for programs providing perpetrator intervention, as well as other material that may from time to time benefit those who have an interest in ending violence against women.
