Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: Although the role of intimate partner violence (IPV) in the lives of women with substance abuse issues is increasingly recognized, services to this vulnerable population remain fragmented. Three New York City agencies collaborated on a pilot project which offered domestic violence services in seven substance abuse treatment programs. We interviewed participating administrators and staff; clients participated in focus groups. Diffusion of Innovation theory provided an analytic framework. Qualitative analysis suggests that the process of adaptation is crucial to the adoption of IPV services. Minimizing bureaucratic barriers, decentralizing decision making, increasing communication linkages among staff and other service providers are possible ways of maximizing a program’s ability to adapt services to meet its needs. Ways of helping substance abuse clinicians use the new technology include: supporting a stable program staff; providing cross training and a space in which staff can discuss concerns and experiences with the new services; supporting IPV staff as “change agents” and substance abuse clinicians who might mentor her and champion the change.
