Lifestyles Group

Domestic Violence & Life Skills Group

This group is held once each month and is attended by offenders on probation who have completed the domestic violence intervention / treatment as ordered by the court. The purpose of this group is:

• To re-enforce the use of the skills they learned in domestic violence counseling
• To learn new skills that can improve their relationships with others and their lives

Group Learning Experience

Each probationer attends a total of six sessions, actively participating in the group learning experience. The group is led by the domestic violence probation officers but the focus is on each individual gaining a new sense of hope and growth. The skills they learn are focused to propel them toward a life without domestic violence.
