Interventionsstelle gegen häusliche Gewalt Basel Land
The Domestic Violence Intervention Centre (DVIC) is the cantonal agency for violence within marriage, partnerships and families. Domestic violence is physical, psychological or sexual violence that is carried out or threatened, and has serious consequences for the victims. Stopping violence, protecting victims and holding perpetrators accountable – these are the main objectives of the cantonal measures to curb violence in close social environments. Domestic violence is not a private matter. The IST is the specialised point of contact and stands for a consistent zero tolerance policy towards domestic violence. The intervention centre is responsible for coordination and networking, data collection and impact monitoring. The IST advises and trains institutions that deal with the phenomenon of domestic violence. In addition, the intervention centre has been responsible for the successful implementation of the learning programme for violent men for over 10 years.
