Power and Control Wheels

The power and control wheel was developed to provide a visual framework for understanding the dynamics of abusive relationships and conceptualizing the array of behaviors that may be used by one partner to maintain power and control over another. Over time, modifications of the wheel have been developed to provide describe tactics specific to certain occupations, age groups, etc., and equality wheels have been developed to provide visuals for understanding healthy relationships. The wheels are frequently used as training tools in helping the audience have a better understanding of the complexities of a violent intimate partner relationship.
