Description
The OVW Domestic Violence Mentor Court Technical Assistance Initiative (Mentor Court Initiative) creates a unique opportunity to recognize well-established specialized courts and enable them to guide other courts and court-based programs that wish to significantly improve their court responses to domestic violence cases and ensure victim safety and offender accountability. With years of experience honing strategies that enhance offender accountability and improve victim safety in domestic violence cases, these well-established courts have successfully served as national models and share their expertise by hosting site visits, linking courts with peers facing similar challenges and assisting other domestic violence courts to implement best practices to respond effectively to these difficult cases. In order to continue this effort, OVW is accepting applications for continuation and new Mentor Court projects in FY 2017.
