Batterer's Intervention goes beyond anger management to focus on men and women who have used violence to dominate, intimidate, control or physically injure others in personal relationships. Using the principles of Respect, Integrity and Accountability participants learn how to have healthy relationships based on Safety and Equality.

Alice Miller claimed that ending corporal punishment is the single greatest thing we could do to end cruelty in the world. We need to end the practice of hitting our kids.
BIP facilitators can learn a great deal from this. I think Jacob is wonderful.

Dorthy Stucky Halley and I took a break to see a movie tonight. Putting on our 3D glasses changed our view. Dorthy has certainly changed me for good, as she has for so many others! Fun night!
Here is Part 2 of our Master Class Series with Michelle McCormick, the Executive Director of Kansas Coalition Against Sexual and Domestic Violence (KCSDV). In this conversation, Michelle illustrated the value of understanding Battering Motive as it relates to victim safety. Painting all who batter with the same brush can unintentionally place victims in further danger. Thanks so much for listening, and please share this important information widely.

Our hearts are broken today. We’ve lost a hero.
Saturday night, a Hays Police Department officer was killed while rushing to help someone in our community who was experiencing domestic violence. This brave officer didn’t hesitate to answer that call, knowing the danger it might bring.
Every day, we at Options work side by side with these incredible officers. We’ve seen their compassion with survivors and know the weight they carry. This officer died putting themselves between violence and vulnerability.
Our thoughts and prayers are with the officer’s family and the entire Hays Police Department.
