About Us
NCPAT is a networking and support organization for professionals of state-certified Domestic Violence Intervention
Programs (DVIPs) and other individuals or agencies that wish to support the work of DVIPs.
Our Beliefs
The individuals and organizations affiliated with NCPAT have a common vision of strengthening families through eliminating
domestic violence. We believe that domestic violence offenders should assume sole responsibility for their abusive behavior.
What Do We Do?
The main function of NCPAT is to build on our expanding knowledge base and serve as a catalyst for new and more
effective approaches for intervention with domestic violence offenders. We work with stakeholders across the state to increase offender
accountability and promote victim safety.
Who Can Join?
We welcome agencies with a certified Domestic Violence Intervention Program (DVIP), who meet the criteria of the North Carolina

purposes of the organization and desire to be more informed and involved in the work of DVIPs.
