This is a program designed to monitor offenders convicted of domestic violence. The aim is to strengthen commitment to the correctional process and prevent future violence against women and revictimization.
The program consists of meetings between offenders and judges, initially once every two weeks. Meetings are scheduled more or less frequently, depending on the offender’s compliance with the requirements, and sanctions (verbal warning, increased frequency of court appearances, return to the initial phases of the program and electronic monitoring) and rewards (praise and reduced frequency of appearances) are provided throughout the process.
Judges carry out the following actions during meetings with offenders: assessing expected behavior and compliance with requirements, planning the monitoring program, applying sanctions and rewards, and reviewing the program’s performance.
