Domestic Violence Offender Project (DVOP)

Family Services works with individuals who have a history of gun-related, domestic violence, or aggression in their relationships in order to help them learn a healthier approach to the people in their lives and communities. Our programs increase awareness of how belief systems and personal histories can lead to violence, giving these individuals the knowledge and skills to make the changes in their lives that make our communities safer.
