Men Stopping Violence (MSV) was founded in 1982 based on the premise that men can work together with women to end men's violence against women. When MSV opened its doors, there was little being done to change the behavior of men who battered women. Over the years, MSV's methodology was carefully developed, tested, reviewed, and refined. This careful approach has established Men Stopping Violence as a national leader in the field of ending men's violence against women. While Men Stopping Violence works with individual men who batter, we are a social change organization. We know that lasting change involves challenging and changing the social norms and institutions that actively or implicitly condone and promote violence against women, Decatur, GA.
