Sexual Violence Concern Group, and Seed of Hope – Crisis Intervention Team and Batterer Intervention Programs.
Rain Lily- Sexual Violence Concern Group - Established in 1997, this nongovernmental organization provided outreach and crisis support for domestic violence victims that experienced sexual abuse. Though several different professionals came together to assist with this effort, the medical professionals took the lead in addressing the matters featured in domestic violence victim’s referrals. Their services offered ranged from crisis counseling and ongoing services. Escort services were available when domestic violence victims reported experiencing difficulty with stalking (Harmony House, 2006).
Seeds of Hope – Crisis Intervention Team - Established in 2001, the Seeds of Home – Crisis Intervention Team developed a multidisciplinary model to address domestic violence by providing crisis support and discovering domestic violence regarding early detection. This effort allowed for social workers to work nontraditional hours at local hospitals. This approach was effective because over 60% of the domestic violence victims were unknown before being identified by the Seeds of Hope – Crisis Intervention Team (Harmony House, 2006).
Batterer Intervention Programs - According to Harmony House (2008), 33% of abused women returned to their battering spouses upon their discharge from domestic violence shelters. However, many of the victims were readmitted to domestic violence shelters because of the reoccurrence of domestic violence from their partner. Therefore, several multidisciplinary professionals worked together to establish services that focused on addressing batterers (Harmony House, 2008). Several innovative batterer focused programs were established. They included a batterer hotline, batterer self-help group, and parenting classes. The pilot

| Abstract | There is a problem with reoccurring domestic violence among batterers, and several systems are working to address the issue; however, these efforts are usually in a siloed fashion. Within the context of the stopping family violence Grand Challenge for Social Work, there have not been reasonable all-inclusive solutions. The size, scope, and social significance of the problem is significant, based on the fact that approximately 1600 women in the United States of America die due to reoccurring domestic violence. On average, either a current or past partner murders two women each week (Cerise, 2011). ❧ This capstone proposal will utilize the collaboration across systems framework to address the reoccurrence of domestic violence. It is designed to address critical issues of the day-to-day practice of stakeholders from various systems working together from the initial 911 call to successful case closure. The proposal represents an innovative way to address the problem of reoccurring domestic violence and stakeholders working in silos due to its request for regular services wrapped around domestic violence batterers. Based on evidence and logic developed from several existing stakeholder efforts abroad, the capstone will produce successful joint efforts of various stakeholders. While small to start due to this innovation pilot in Arapahoe County, Colorado, the long-term vision of the project is primarily due to the endless possibilities of its replication worldwide. |
