| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺灣大學 === 社會工作學研究所 === 105 === The first establishment of Domestic violence service in district court was in 2002 which judicature, department of social welfare and voluntary sector work together to help battered women to have no fear to fight for their rights in the domestic violence litigation. However, there are more and more male marital batterers seeking for help in recent years. What will happen when female social workers work with these male marital batterers, who have different gender experience? How does this change affect these organizations who considers women as their service target?
Research design is primarily based on qualitative method, including in-depth interviews. The study finds most of the female workers will face difficulties when they work with male batterers, because most of their perspectives of service, training and growth experience are based on Feminism. Moreover, there are very less discussion about male marital batterers and workers’ gender experience in Taiwan. This study shows that the DV service in district courts are changing, they begin to try to find a proper way to help batters. Also, it is necessary for social service agency to learn the role of organization, care resources and social worker’s education from different gender perspective and experience.
According to research findings, there are some implications for social service agency, local government and female workers. The agency should strengthen and provide various and precise resource which can truly reduce female workers’ burnout from helping batterers. Local government should realize DV service in district courts are changing and need to modify evaluation of indicators. In order to avoid burnout from working, female social workers should aware of their condition before or during working with men with resource from their agency.
