Abstract
ABSTRACT Social workers engaged in combating violence and possessing expertise in group facilitation should demonstrate a thorough comprehension of various group methodologies and be acquainted with exemplar instances of good practice. This article delineates the Fathers’ and Men’s Group Project, a support group run by Turkish immigrants in Germany since its inception 17 years ago, subsequently evolving into an anti-violence support group recognized nationwide. The paper investigates the manner in which fathers encountering diverse challenges and requirements receive support, which is demonstrated through a practical example. The support group facilitates the provision of assistance to men by individuals sharing comparable experiences, thereby enhancing their social support networks, refining their problem-solving capabilities, and promoting awareness regarding violence. The objective of this paper is to equip social work instructors, students, and graduates with an understanding of the dynamics, functioning, and characteristics of support groups.
