State of North Carolina Women Statistics

Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault Agencies

The NC Council for Women compiles semi-annual client services statistical data for domestic violence and sexual assault services utilized by women, men, and children seeking support, information, counseling and advocacy. CFW monitors the delivery of services and produces the only county-level data on client services in North Carolina.

Batterer Intervention Program

The mission of NC Batterer Intervention Programs (BIP), also known as abuser treatment programs, is to aid in the elimination of domestic violence by providing services to batterers, to hold them accountable, promote safety and justice for victims and children, and work to bring about social change necessary to end battering and all forms of domestic violence.

BIP’s develop policies and procedures addressing all areas of the NC Administrative Code, Title One, Chapter 17, Section .0700 in keeping with the recordkeeping, documentation, and reports rule NCAC 17.0717.

Semi-Annual Statistical Report Methodology for Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault agencies

The NC Council for Women requires each state-funded Domestic Violence (DV) and Sexual Assault (SA) grantee to report on client service provision. The 2014-2015 data represents information provided by 105 Domestic Violence grant agencies  [1] and 98 Sexual Assault grant agencies[2] in North Carolina to the NC Council for Women over a one-year period.

Each agency fills out a statistical report every 6 months that involve demographics, services provided and volunteer hours. The reports are sent to the NC Council for Women, where the data is checked and analyzed. In order to provide yearly data, the NC Council for Women combines two semi-annual reports from all agencies for each fiscal year. The Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault agency statistical year begins each July 1 and concludes the following June 30.

Statistics and Participation Reports for BIPs

BIP’s submit quarterly reports tracking participants received by, accepted into, and completing the program; the sources of referral; an analysis of completion rates and reasons for termination; an analysis on contacts with participants’ victimized partners.

BIP groups are open-ended, (participants can enter the program at any time), and group work is 26 weeks.
