Domestic Violence (Adults)

The Domestic Violence Intervention Program (DVIP) is designed to address the underlying
beliefs and attitudes that support domestic violence. This program is intended to work with
those who have exerted power and control in their intimate relationships through physical,
emotional, financial or other means. Participants are challenged to explore the basis for their
beliefs, the impact of their actions on others, various alternatives for managing their thoughts
and emotions, and ways to begin building a more positive and encouraging environment for
their partner and children. Learn more about this program.

Anger Management

The Anger Management Program helps examine where your thoughts and emotions originate
and how to manage your emotions to create a different outcome. The concepts, skills and
issues participants have the opportunity to develop through the Anger Management program
include accepting responsibility, problem-solving and communication skills to name a few.

Learn more about this program. Learn more about this 12-week session.
