Completion of a Batterer Intervention Program (BIP), primarily offered in the psycho-educational group format, is mandated throughout the United States for men and women who have pled guilty to a domestic violence offense. In this special, live 5-hour training, John Hamel shares with you more than 30 years of research and clinical experience, having conducted or supervised hundreds of BIP groups in the San Francisco Bay Area.
