If you answered yes to any of the above questions, you need to get immediate assistance!!  The Partner Abuse Intervention Program (PAIP) is a 26-week domestic violence program that has been designed to assist perpetrators of domestic violence.  The goal and objective of the program is to identify negative behaviors of our clients, as we educate them on domestic violence.  The program offers group counseling sessions for court ordered clients, as well as self-referrals.  The curriculum that we utilize is based on the Duluth Method of Domestic Violence Counseling which focuses on Accountability and Responsibility for one’s actions.

Each client will complete and Intake Assessment.  The cost of the program is based on a sliding-scale fee.  If you feel as though you would benefit from our program, please contact our agency at (708) 429-7255.  Assistance is just a phone call away.
