Through the use of a unique, interactive model, the Domestic Violence program aids the offender in accepting responsibility for his or her actions. It teaches the skills necessary to cope with interpersonal problems in a nonviolent manner.
The program's major themes are: 1) People are not for hitting.
2) Violence undermines the purpose of a family and a home.
3) Problems temporarily solved with violence are never permanently solved.
4) There is no excuse for abuse.
During the Crossroads Domestic Violence program, participants will:
- Accept responsibility for their actions.
- Learn why they use violence to try to solve problems.
- Understand how attitude affects behavior.
- Gain better self-control.
- Understand the process necessary to change their behavior.
- Make a commitment never to use to violence in relationships with others.
