383	Section 10.  Section 741.32, Florida Statutes, is amended
384	to read:
385	741.32  Certification of Batterers' intervention programs.-
386	(1)  The Legislature finds that the incidence of domestic
387	violence in this state Florida is disturbingly high, and that,
388	despite the efforts of many to curb this violence, that one
389	person dies at the hands of a spouse, ex-spouse, or cohabitant
390	approximately every 3 days. Further, a child who witnesses the
391	perpetration of this violence becomes a victim as he or she
392	hears or sees it occurring. This child is at high risk of also
393	being the victim of physical abuse by the parent who is
394	perpetrating the violence and, to a lesser extent, by the parent
395	who is the victim. These children are also at a high risk of
396	perpetrating violent crimes as juveniles and, later, becoming
397	perpetrators of the same violence that they witnessed as
398	children. The Legislature finds that there should be
399	standardized programming available to the justice system to
400	protect victims and their children and to hold the perpetrators
401	of domestic violence accountable for their acts. Finally, the
402	Legislature recognizes that in order for batterers' intervention
403	programs to be successful in protecting victims and their
404	children, all participants in the justice system as well as
405	social service agencies and local and state governments must
406	coordinate their efforts at the community level.
407	(2)  There is hereby established in the Department of
408	Children and Family Services an Office for Certification and
409	Monitoring of Batterers' Intervention Programs. The department
410	may certify and monitor both programs and personnel providing
411	direct services to those persons who are adjudged to have
412	committed an act of domestic violence as defined in s. 741.28,
413	those against whom an injunction for protection against domestic
414	violence is entered, those referred by the department, and those
415	who volunteer to attend such programs. The purpose of
416	certification of programs is to uniformly and systematically
417	standardize programs to hold those who perpetrate acts of
418	domestic violence responsible for those acts and to ensure
419	safety for victims of domestic violence. The certification and
420	monitoring shall be funded by user fees as provided in s.
421	741.327.
422	Section 11.  Section 741.325, Florida Statutes, is amended
423	to read:
424	741.325  Requirements for batterers' intervention programs
425	Guideline authority.-

432	counseling and mediation), conflicts of interest, assessment,
433	program content and specifics, qualifications of providers, and
434	credentials for facilitators, supervisors, and trainees. The
435	department shall, in addition, establish specific procedures
436	governing all aspects of program operation, including
437	administration, personnel, fiscal matters, victim and batterer
438	records, education, evaluation, referral to treatment and other
439	matters as needed. In addition, the rules shall establish:
440	(a)(1)  That The primary purpose of the program programs
441	shall be victim safety and the safety of the children, if
442	present.
443	(b)(2)  That The batterer shall be held accountable for
444	acts of domestic violence.
445	(c)(3)  That The program programs shall be at least 29
446	weeks in length and shall include 24 weekly sessions, plus
447	appropriate intake, assessment, and orientation programming.
448	(d)(4)  That The program shall be a psychoeducational model
449	that employs a program content based on tactics of power and
450	control by one person over another.
451	(5)  That the programs and those who are facilitators,
452	supervisors, and trainees be certified to provide these programs
453	through initial certification and that the programs and
454	personnel be annually monitored to ensure that they are meeting

456	(e)(6)  The intent that The program shall programs be user-
457	fee funded with fees from the batterers who attend the program
458	as payment, which for programs is important to the batterer

461	state, or federal programs that fund batterers' intervention
462	programs in whole or in part.
