Needs of the Personnel for Care/Prevention of Intrafamily
Violence against Women in a Region in Mexico

Abstract: This article is a research report about a study
conducted between 2010 and 2011 in the North Coast of
Jalisco, Mexico. The study had three goals: 1.- Identify
the number of institutions and the characteristics of
public servants who attend to and prevent domestic
violence against women. 2.- Analyze the needs and issues
these public servants face. 3.- Analyze their conceptions
related to gender. For the fi rst goal a census of all
institutions in the region was conducted; for the other
two, twenty people were interviewed. Results reveal that
76% of them are women, working at 12 institutions. Their
stated needs refer to insuffi cient personnel and training.
They conceive violence as blows and aggressions,
unrelated to male control as the central point to violence.

Key words: public servants, gender violence, partner
relationships, needs and conceptions
