LINKS TO STATE SITES Attorney General Lockyer's Task Force on Domestic Violence Meets in Oakland Panel Studies Ways to Improve Local Criminal Justice Response to Family Violence February 18, 2004 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE (OAKLAND) – Attorney General Bill Lockyer today convened in Oakland the second regional hearing of a statewide task force studying the effectiveness of how local criminal justice agencies respond to and deal with domestic violence issues. The 26-member task force is holding public hearings throughout the state to study local policies and practices, identify those that work well and determine which ones may harm or threaten the safety of domestic violence victims. "California leads the nation in taking steps to stop the cycle of domestic violence, yet domestic violence continues to be an epidemic," Lockyer said. "These regional hearings are providing valuable information on what is happening at the local level, and what we can do to standardize and strengthen local practices and programs to protect families from violence in the home." The task force is focusing on four issues: How domestic violence restraining orders are obtained and enforced; how law enforcement agencies respond to mandated reports of domestic violence by health care practitioners; how courts, probation and batterer intervention programs hold batterers accountable; and how prosecutors' offices handle misdemeanor domestic violence cases.

According to the most recent report from the Department of Justice, there were almost 700,000 incidents of domestic violence in 2001. Approximately one-third of women who are murdered each year are killed by their current or former husband or partner. Children who are subjected to domestic violence too often grow up to inflict violence on others, creating a cycle of violence that must be stopped. During National Domestic Violence Awareness Month, we renew our Nation's commitment to prevent and punish the perpetrators of this despicable crime and bring hope and healing to those affected by it. In some communities across our country, law enforcement, medical, and legal services for domestic violence victims are fragmented, requiring victims to travel to several different places to receive the help and treatment they need. Comprehen-sive service centers for domestic violence victims and their dependents enable health and justice professionals to better serve those in need. My Administration supports efforts to provide a wide variety of victim services in one location, including medical care, counseling and social services, law enforcement and legal resources, faith-based services, employment assistance, and housing assistance.

Almanac of Policy Issues Home Search Archive U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families April 2000 Domestic Violence This violence takes a devastating toll on children who are exposed to its cruelty. Approximately 826,000 children are abused by their parents each year. Children whose mothers are victims of wife battery are twice as likely to be abused themselves as those children whose mothers are not victims of abuse. When children witness violence in the home, they have been found to suffer many of the symptoms that are experienced by children who are directly abused. Through the Family Violence Prevention and Services Act, the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) is responsible for several activities which address domestic violence. The Family Violence Prevention and Services Act was enacted as Title III of the Child Abuse Amendments of 1984, and was reauthorized and amended for FY 1995 through FY 2000 by the Violent Crime Control and Law Empowerment Act of 1994 (the Crime Bill). Battered Women's Shelters and Services The Administration for Children and Families awards grants to State agencies, Territories, and Indian Tribes for the provision of shelter services to victims of family violence and their dependents and for related services, such as alcohol and substance abuse prevention and family violence prevention counseling. These Federal funds supplement many already established community-based family violence prevention and services activities. They also allow States and Tribes to expand current service programs and to establish additional new centers in rural and underserved areas, on Native American reservations, and in Alaskan Native Villages and Regional Corporation areas. In most areas, there is private sector as well as State and local funding for these emergency shelters.

Training Keys Section 3 Guidelines for Law Enforcement Agencies Fifteen years ago police agencies provided little or no service to the victims of domestic violence because such intervention was not considered appropriate. Today nearly every police department has a policy, procedures and resources dedicated to addressing domestic violence. Workplace violence warrants a similar response from law enforcement, given the rise of violent crime by nonstrangers in the workplace, the heightened concern of employers, the high risk for injury associated with these crimes, and the inappropriateness of using traditional police strategies when confronting multiple-victim workplace shooting situations. Many police executives have concluded that their existing domestic violence programs provide a useful framework for structuring new policies and procedures concerning workplace violence. This strategy was used by many of the police officials who developed the following guidelines for law enforcement agencies. These guidelines should help police address workplace violence in their communities without overtaxing departmental resources. Employers may also wish to read this section so that they can better understand how police agencies might assist them in combating workplace violence. I.

SPECIFIC ISSUES Later Life Faith Communities Batterer Intervention/ Prevention Programs People with Disabilities ... Family Violence/ Option/ Welfare BATTERER INTERVENTION PREVENTION PROGRAMS IN WEST VIRGINIA Establishing batterer intervention prevention programs is an effort to provide comprehensive programs addressing the impact of domestic violence on individuals and in communities. Batterer's programs are one piece of a coordinated community response involving law enforcement, prosecutors, courts, judges, communities of faith, schools, victim services, health care professionals, correctional facilities, etc. The primary purpose of programs for batterers is to maximize safety for victims of domestic violence and to hold perpetrators accountable for their violence and abusive choices. In West Virginia, programs for batterers are rooted in the theory that the cause of domestic violence is one person's arbitrary belief in the right to exert power over another person. This power is demonstrated through a pattern of coercive control used to intimidate and manipulate the victim into responding according to the batterer's immediate demands and desires. Perpetrators of domestic and family violence are deliberate in choosing their victims and in selecting their tactical means of control. Perpetrators learn to accept violence and abuse as a means of resolving inter-personal conflict with few if any negative consequences. Only recently in West Virginia (1992) was domestic violence identified as a crime that will no longer be tolerated or excused.
