abstract="The conceptual and programmatic elements of a community-based approach to the prevention and treatment of victims of domestic violence in Chile are presented. The program reflects the tenets of a psychosocial wellness model focusing on individual and community competencies and resources to solve human problems. The intervention incorporates elements of crisis intervention with strategies to identify and empower natural social support networks. As necessary, victims are referred to specialized physical and mental health services. During its initial stages, the program was provided to physicians and allied medical staff of a local hospital. Participants included nurse-aides, nurses, doctors, social workers, social work-aides, and other personnel from medical units providing emergency, pediatric, and obstetric care. Team cohesion was emphasized and information regarding domestic violence, crisis intervention, and referral strategies was provided. During the program's second stage, prevention and education strategies were targeted to community organizations and educational institutions.
