In conjunction with the Jackson County Prosecutor's Office, Synergy Services will develop a Diversion Specialty Court that will focus specifically on domestic violence offenders. Judges who have received domestic violence training will exclusively refer domestic violence (DV) offenders to Synergy's BIP and oversee offender  progress. Synergy's BIP program staff will provide individual offender assessments, group education treatment provided by the therapist, and monitored case management provided by the diversion officer.  Synergy Services anticipates that 90% of an expected 60 offenders will successfully complete the 46-week program.
