N2  - This article reports on a collaboration to develop, implement, and evaluate a domestic violence prevention program for 900 employees in a garment factory. The authors discuss issues in collaboration between researchers and advocates as well as employers, employees, and the employer's foundation. Although more complicated, this fivefold partnering process eventually led to an outcome that satisfied participants and yielded positive results. Drawing on both literature and the evaluators' experiences, the authors describe important components of collaborative research in the workplace, using examples from the workplace prevention program's evaluation activities to highlight their importance. Last, they consider the significance of a collaborative program evaluation in light of the reduced methodological rigor necessitated by the collaborative process.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
