What is Child to Parent Violence?
Traditional Domestic Violence Intervention: Duluth Model http://www.theduluthmodel.org/training/wheels.html
“We are the nicest sanction in town” • Family Safety is our #1 concern • BTC is not a “how-to” parenting course and is not punitive in tone • Brain development is our theoretical underpinning and coaching human development and thinking skills is our passion. • Civility and weekly check-in process for accountability is a required component
BTC in Action • BTC is highly individualized by culture, age, needs, mental health conditions, cultural issues, school calendar, risk factors, etc. • Peer leadership at BTC is at the core of our ability to individualize • Young adult/Peer leadership is uniquely beneficial • CPV is not just horrible behaviors or bad kids. It’s a real life issue and a “family secret” that is more common than we think. • BTC is talking about this “family secret”…with great results. 8

Feedback from BTC Parents “I might not be alive right now if it weren’t for BTC. I always knew they were just a text away.” “I might be in jail for going off on my son if it was not for BTC.” “I was so mad when I found out I had to come to a sanction with my daughter. Now I can say this is the best thing that ever happened to our family.” “I look forward to Wednesday nights. You people are my friends. Who would have ever thought it’s possible to like a court program!”
