The St. Paul Police Departmrnt was appoineed iu first Chief in 18i4, the ycar in which the city- w•as mcorporated. Thc Q�y of St. paul has a population of 287,151 and is approximately 55 square miles in area. Much of che character of ;he Se. Pau] Police Deparaneat, similar co the city it serves, dcri�es from the energy, growth and very disnnct and diverse personalities of iu ciry's neighborhoods. The strong neighborhoods, private and non-profit organizations, business�s and go��emment entities creace a rieh foundation for the City of St. Paul; enhanced with the frequen[ visits of the broader cemmunity of the metropolitan area'S 3.5 million residrnts. Whi]e considered to be a relarively safe c�ty, Sainc Paul has its share of the accompanying crime and socioeconomic issues associated with a city this size. The St. Paul Police Depa�rhnent u tenacious in its mission "co protect and to serve": procect the riehts ot each person �.�,th�n ics jurisdiction to be free from criminal attack, to be secure in their possessions, and to !rve in peace. The Depanntent is charged with responding to and investigating all crimes whieh occur withm the c�ty limits. To accomplish this rask ehe department has an authorized awom strength of 576 peace officers and 205 suppon scaf£ The departmem �s considered a "fu11 setvice" agenoy wjth the infrasWCture necessary to perfocm atl tuks related to la�� enforcement. The Saint Paul Po14ce DepaRment is dedicattd, and has a provrn commitment, to employing, retaming and promoting a staff that �s reflectivc of the diversity of the community it serves. In the past nine years the department has recru�ted and hired 211 females and 153 people of color, representing a respective increase of 139 °/, and 260%. Matenats and resources are ava�lable in three different languages, and over 300 couz[ certified interpmers aze on staff and on call to assist non-Engluh �peakme pecsons and the hearing impaired. The Depamnent and all its faciiities are handicapped accessible and distr�ct offices and/or substations are located at 14 different areas across the city. Over the past nine years the St. Paul Police Department has successfully woven community partnerships and collaborazions imo the enhre infrastructure ofthe Depattment. In 1992, Ctuef William Fmney, resol�•ed to ensurc that St Paul be a quality plaee to live For all its sesidents, began to jnsiill the philosophy and practue of convnuntry-policing, tailored specificalty to the un�que needs ofthe ciry. ahe results of the Cr.

To the Department these considerabie accomp6shments can feel iike hollow vicLOries ��'S �s when a citizen from our community is �ssa�ilted and teirorized by a family member or sameone they at one time £eit they could intimately mut. The St. Paul Pofice, in alliance with the Saint Paul Intervention Project and the suppon of the Joint City/County Prosecurian Tea� would like to create a modet Familv Yolence Unit to more effectivdy respond ta domestic riolence against women, better insure the victims� safery aad hold the perpetrators accountable for their violence. The St Paul Po6ce Departmeat has not and cannot alone address the issue of violence against women. The Saint Paul Poliee havt a tong and rieh history of working towards ending domestic violence; ranzing from developing and impiementing a conce�ttated domestic azsau3t enforcement policy /practice and establishing the Field Referral Uait responsible for resttaini�g ordtr violations and fotlow-up on cases where there was no arrest at the sceeq to begitmutg its peRnership ia 1984 wiRh the Saint Paui Domestic Abuse Intervention Project (a grass- roou battered women's progam) and participazing in numerous communiry and government initiacives which concentrate on domesdc abuse on a local, stat�wide, and national level. In the yeaz 2000, the St Paut Police Department responded to over 15,000 ca11s Por service in the area of domestic disputes, ofwhicb, appto�otnately 2,300 incidences of domestic assault were reported. These figures include Aggavated Domestic Asae�ilts, Misdemeanor pomestic Assaults, Gross Misdemeanors, Interference with 911 and Voiations of Orders for Protecdon This does not include the numezous number of sexua! assaults committed by a spousdpartner agamst the vicCm or the physical or sexual assault committed against a ctuld by a family member. CurrenUy there are 5ve people assigned to the issues surrounding violence against women, and those o�cers aad their divi5ions are spread tluoughout the Department. The priority the 5t. Paul Pofice I7epartment has piaced on responding to domestic violence issues has been heightened by a) understanding that domestie violence is cyctical in nature and wreaks havoc on e�ery facet of our socicty; b) knowledge that even though prevention is the ultimate goal, intervention is a very strong method of funue preventiott, due to the generational cycle of abuse, c) awazeness thas expeditious identification and prosecution of offenders is critical in ensuring victim's safety and/or that the perpetrators violence witt not be redirected to another victim, and d} recem initiatives and concentration ae the nationai level on issues of domestic abuse. "�'he goal of the St. Paul Poliee Departmrnt is to oversee and facilitate the process by which domestic violence cases are investigated and brought to success£ul resolution; facilitating quick inteivention with offenders and greater assistance and protection to victims, 'I'his gi�ant will assist the police department and its parcners in counteracting the esealation of, and hopefiilly one day eluninating domesvc violence; ttuough the creation of a model Famiiy Vidence Unit whoae efforts will vastly expand and enhance the legal action and standard af pcotectioa iu domestie asssult cases. The Fami]y volence Unit's goals would be to a) create att umbrella over ap crimes against the family within the St. Paul Police Depattmeet; b) strive to be victim centered and empower the virtim in decisions, c) create a moxe efficient imervetrtion in family violence cases; d) estabUsh and nurrirre multi-discipGne partnersfiips in acUieving this work; e) institute a strong protocol for family violence investigations; � assign more accountability and responsbility to imeatigators; g) educate and uain a(1 officers and invesrigators who respond co domestic violence calla/caaes on the ntw protocol, the dynamics o£ domestic abuse, and increased sensitivity to diverse commuairies. F�mds fl'om the VAWA gtant cvill be used to add two investigators to a newty created Family �olence Unit. Three additiona! po&ce officers w+il] be added in-kind from the Department's current strength. The Departmrnt Eee}s confident that the inception of a Family volence Unit, working in even closer collaboration with the $aiM pau] Inten project, Jouit City/Prosecution Team, and other community organizationa, aviE draenatically elange tAe v�e demeanor of domestic ahuse in our community and create a modei that couid bc repiicated across the state.

Evaluatioa is iategai to the success of this project. If we are to increase victim safety and decrease the number ofrepeat offepses, we must bt open to critical analysis and input. The expeditious identification and �roeecution ofoffanders is critical where violence has not been prevented The misBion ofthe Family Violence Unit is to oversee and facilitate the process by which domestic violence cases are invescigate3 and brought to successfiil resoluaon, facilitating quick intervention with o&'endere and assistanca to victims. The evaluation methods will be a combinatipn ofwritten surveys, fac�to-face interviews, c3ient feedback and aubstnntiaJ data ana►yyis. Pre- and post-implementation suzveys with victims will be one of the vehicles by which victim input, needs and safety are ensured. Comparative data analysis wi11 aiso be incorporated;nto the evatuation process, utiluing data &om the St. Paul Police Department and the Saint Peut Domesric Abuee bttervemion Project. Post-training participant evatuations wiil be conduaed by the Saint Paui Iatervention Project. Tracking and data analysis of repeat offenders and offenders at high riak of violent reoffenses is expected to increase the charging and sentencing of these perpetrators. The Unit wil] be able;o track ceses with the same invastigator being responsible for repeat cases. This early recognition of repeat offenders will allow greater initial focus on the investigation and facilitate the creation of a repeat offender database, much like the career criminal list. The Family votenee i7mt will beeome the central contact for all St. Paul domestic abuse victims and advocates. Victim6 will not have to contact other units to find out who is dealing with their case A stmng proto�l that addresses the nceds and safety ofthe victim is the focal point ofthe new unit. The pratocol wi11 atress rqaking the system more open and available to victims and also more sensitive to victims' needs. This will be measured irt the evaluation phase of the project through victim surveys, and data documenting improvaneiR in case handling and disposition. The collabortttion ttaclerstande that ttaining will play a crucial role in the success of this project, For this zeesan, data will be collected �nd analyzed Pertaining to azrest rates, and the numbec of cases submitted for charging. The true evaluation of the �ucpess pf this project will be seen 3n the next three to five years, with a reduction ovetall in domestic abuse cases; d'uectly related to holding perpetrators accountable for their abuse, reaponding swiftly and decigiveiy with tepeat offenses.

The St. Paul Polict Depattment has the essenrial spirit and resolve for guaranteeing the success of a Family Violence Unit. If the atcessary structure and pezsonnel was made available, our a�ency has no doubt of the Unit's ability to obtain its goals. The St. Paul Police Department began seeking input two yeats ago in conceiving the premise fot a model Family Violence Unit. Victim safety and input was at the top of thair agonda, The co]]aborative design for the madel is to: a) centralize and monitor al! crimes against the faznily, hoiding aU invostigations to the same high standazds, b) be victim centered, ensuring victim safety and empowerment in decisions; c) create a more efficient and rapid intervention in domestic abuse incidences; d) establish and nunure multi-discipline partnerships; e) assign more responsibility and accompanying aacountability to investigators; � develop and institute a strong protocol for family violence investigations, and g) educate and train all officers and investigators who respond to domestic violence ca!!s/cases on the new protocol. The training wi11 include the dynamics of domestic abuse and the needs of diverse cultural communities. The collabotative spirit of this model wi(1 continuc through the implementation phase, and throughout its tenure. The St Paul lntervention Project will work in elose partnership wiYh the Unit ensu�ng the needs of victims, assisting in training police personnel, collaborating in the on-going evaluation of the Unit, and serving as a conduit for victim input and satisfactiott. The Saint Pav] Domestic Abuse Intervention Project is a gass-roots otganization that exists to etiminate violence against women and their childreq and the social and system responses that condone or aliow its oppression. Our organization believes that domestic violence is a crime and every battered woman has the right to access the criminal justice system, reeeive �afety thraugh the laws that are designed to proteet her, and obtain ihe critical suppart and serviees she and her children deserve. We affirm that battered women must be free to make their own choices, have the tight to dignity and possess the capacity to make sound decisions if free from the violence thai obstructs these choices. We further believe that no one has the right to abuse anyone and no one deserves to be abused reg�rdloss of gender, race, socio-eeonomic background, age, mental or physical ability, se�ual orientation, spiritua] belief, or partnedmarita] status. We have operatet( ay a non-prof�t organ"uation since I984, to grovide direct advocaey, crisis intervention and suppozt to battered women and theu children; facilitate the system's response to domestic abuse; and provide education, prevemioa, and outteach to vicrims of domestic violence and the community at )arge. Annualiy, over 3,500 battered women receive direct services, over 10,000 informational packets are distributed and 2,400 more calls for support, informaUon end referrats on our 24-hour crisis line. Hundreds more battered women, members of the community, a�d women and c6iidren receive education, prevencion, intervention and advocacy services through our pnpgratna prpgram materiais and services are available in Spanish, �nglish, Hmong and Lao; additionaJ materials are a�go avaitable 'sn Vietnamese and Cambodian, and we are currendy translating our brochures into Russian Eaeh pgour nine programs, the Acute Intarventior4 Systems Advocacy, Community Outreac(x, Latino Family Violence, Southeast Asian battered women's, HospitaUClinic, Oldet Battered MRY-14-2061 16�15 6512923675 98i P.23 01/18/1995 17:17 6512923675 SAINT PAUL POLICE PAGE 24 D► -S'�1� Women's, Family Transitional, and Children's Advocacy and Support Program, operate within the unique framework oftheir own goels and objectives, but in collaboration with one another I'he Sai[rt Paul Inte�y�ntion praject stagreflects the culiurai and age diversity of the cammunities we sen�e.

Thc Q�y of St. paul has a population of 287,151 and is approximately 55 square miles in area. Much of che character of ;he Se.

The strong neighborhoods, private and non-profit organizations, business�s and go��emment entities creace a rieh foundation for the City of St. Paul; enhanced with the frequen[ visits of the broader cemmunity of the metropolitan area'S 3.5 million residrnts. Whi]e considered to be a relarively safe c�ty, Sainc Paul has its share of the accompanying crime and socioeconomic issues associated with a city this size. The St. Paul Police Depa�rhnent u tenacious in its mission "co protect and to serve": procect the riehts ot each person �.�,th�n ics jurisdiction to be free from criminal attack, to be secure in their possessions, and to !rve in peace.

To accomplish this rask ehe department has an authorized awom strength of 576 peace officers and 205 suppon scaf£ The departmem �s considered a "fu11 setvice" agenoy wjth the infrasWCture necessary to perfocm atl tuks related to la�� enforcement. The Saint Paul Po14ce DepaRment is dedicattd, and has a provrn commitment, to employing, retaming and promoting a staff that �s reflectivc of the diversity of the community it serves. In the past nine years the department has recru�ted and hired 211 females and 153 people of color, representing a respective increase of 139 °/, and 260%. Matenats and resources are ava�lable in three different languages, and over 300 couz[ certified interpmers aze on staff and on call to assist non-Engluh �peakme pecsons and the hearing impaired.

Over the past nine years the St. Paul Police Department has successfully woven community partnerships and collaborazions imo the enhre infrastructure ofthe Depattment. In 1992, Ctuef William Fmney, resol�•ed to ensurc that St Paul be a quality plaee to live For all its sesidents, began to jnsiill the philosophy and practue of convnuntry-policing, tailored specificalty to the un�que needs ofthe ciry. ahe results of the Cr.

The St. Paul Pofice, in alliance with the Saint Paul Intervention Project and the suppon of the Joint City/County Prosecurian Tea� would like to create a modet Familv Yolence Unit to more effectivdy respond ta domestic riolence against women, better insure the victims� safery aad hold the perpetrators accountable for their violence. The St Paul Po6ce Departmeat has not and cannot alone address the issue of violence against women. The Saint Paul Poliee havt a tong and rieh history of working towards ending domestic violence; ranzing from developing and impiementing a conce�ttated domestic azsau3t enforcement policy /practice and establishing the Field Referral Uait responsible for resttaini�g ordtr violations and fotlow-up on cases where there was no arrest at the sceeq to begitmutg its peRnership ia 1984 wiRh the Saint Paui Domestic Abuse Intervention Project (a grass- roou battered women's progam) and participazing in numerous communiry and government initiacives which concentrate on domesdc abuse on a local, stat�wide, and national level. In the yeaz 2000, the St Paut Police Department responded to over 15,000 ca11s Por service in the area of domestic disputes, ofwhicb, appto�otnately 2,300 incidences of domestic assault were reported. These figures include Aggavated Domestic Asae�ilts, Misdemeanor pomestic Assaults, Gross Misdemeanors, Interference with 911 and Voiations of Orders for Protecdon This does not include the numezous number of sexua! assaults committed by a spousdpartner agamst the vicCm or the physical or sexual assault committed against a ctuld by a family member. CurrenUy there are 5ve people assigned to the issues surrounding violence against women, and those o�cers aad their divi5ions are spread tluoughout the Department. The priority the 5t. Paul Pofice I7epartment has piaced on responding to domestic violence issues has been heightened by a) understanding that domestie violence is cyctical in nature and wreaks havoc on e�ery facet of our socicty; b) knowledge that even though prevention is the ultimate goal, intervention is a very strong method of funue preventiott, due to the generational cycle of abuse, c) awazeness thas expeditious identification and prosecution of offenders is critical in ensuring victim's safety and/or that the perpetrators violence witt not be redirected to another victim, and d} recem initiatives and concentration ae the nationai level on issues of domestic abuse. "�'he goal of the St. Paul Poliee Departmrnt is to oversee and facilitate the process by which domestic violence cases are investigated and brought to success£ul resolution; facilitating quick inteivention with offenders and greater assistance and protection to victims, 'I'his gi�ant will assist the police department and its parcners in counteracting the esealation of, and hopefiilly one day eluninating domesvc violence; ttuough the creation of a model Famiiy Vidence Unit whoae efforts will vastly expand and enhance the legal action and standard af pcotectioa iu domestie asssult cases. The Fami]y volence Unit's goals would be to a) create att umbrella over ap crimes against the family within the St. Paul Police Depattmeet; b) strive to be victim centered and empower the virtim in decisions, c) create a moxe efficient imervetrtion in family violence cases; d) estabUsh and nurrirre multi-discipGne partnersfiips in acUieving this work; e) institute a strong protocol for family violence investigations; � assign more accountability and responsbility to imeatigators; g) educate and uain a(1 officers and invesrigators who respond co domestic violence calla/caaes on the ntw protocol, the dynamics o£ domestic abuse, and increased sensitivity to diverse commuairies. F�mds fl'om the VAWA gtant cvill be used to add two investigators to a newty created Family �olence Unit. Three additiona! po&ce officers w+il] be added in-kind from the Department's current strength. The Departmrnt Eee}s confident that the inception of a Family volence Unit, working in even closer collaboration with the $aiM pau] Inten project, Jouit City/Prosecution Team, and other community organizationa, aviE draenatically elange tAe v�e demeanor of domestic ahuse in our community and create a modei that couid bc repiicated across the state.

Chddren m homes where domestic violence occuss are physically abused or sextiously neglected at a 1 i00% higfia rate than the national aoerage. Srudies have shoam that when baztered women do reach out for heIp, law enforcement is the 6rst profeesional system they will call. In this past yar asi alat:ning 40 wom� and si1 children were killed in Minnesora due to domesric abuse. The St Paul PoGce Deparnnmt fully reco�izes die huge significance of diese and od�er domesric relaced uagedies, and rhe insurmountabie toll theq take on our nei�borhoods and communiry. In d�e yeaz 2000, rhe St. P3u1 Police responded to ova 15,800 domestie dispuu calls, of wiiirh approximatelp 2,300 incid�ces of domestic assault were reported. "ihese repom include Aggravated and Misdemeanor pomestic Assauls, �otations of Orders of Proteccon and Gross Mirdemeanor Inurference with 9] 1.'Ihep do not indude the substantial numbcr of set�ual assaul� commitced by a spouse/parmer agauzst the victim or the phpsical or se�ual assauh corrurutted against a child by a faznily member. t1n estimazed 3a% of rhe 2,300 inadences were able to be subrrutted co be charged. �ith the cuaent sysxm and numba of petsonnd wishin the Dtpaztrnent it is very difficulc to su£ticiendp tcack the multiple crimrs and violent historia of the abusrss, thorou�ly invesrigate each crime, and ensure rhat all victinss' critical needs are being mec Very yunilar to the design of most Police Deparunaia throughout the United States, there are presrntlp five differrnt methods under which a domesric case may be investigared and 6rou�r to courr. 1) the Homieide Unit is zesponsible for a�oestigaong felony and gross misdemeanor domestic assaulrs; � the Field Refeaal Unit is responeible for investigating Gone on A:xival mitdaneanor c�es; 3) d1e Scc Crimes Unit is responsible for investigtting fami]p violmce apainst a child bp a familp member or the se�-ual assault by a partnez against a spouse, 4) the nd�borhood district unia ue cesponsible for invesnganng domestic assaults or violaaons of ordexs of protecrion in which the offmse also included a burglary or c�runal damaae to propexty, and 5) the domesric violmce suspec� that an azrested by d�e paaol office=s at the sc�e are �ssued a cnmuiaf tag and boobed £or the offense and thm go �msi�t to couct in the moming.

In esr.ablishing rhu new mode� which would em�alize the responsibilitq, better aack the cases/ascailants and ersable the victims to receive more effcctive and effidctt services, euh division could a) work in collabontion, b� receive spec7al/on-going saining on domesvc violqtce, c) be held to a necv level of accounnbi&ry, � Eocvs on victm safery and bamers, e) better addrtss the need4 of victims Erom communitia of coloz, and f} work m close partneahip cvith the Sc.

Evaluatioa is iategai to the success of this project. If we are to increase victim safety and decrease the number ofrepeat offepses, we must bt open to critical analysis and input. The expeditious identification and �roeecution ofoffanders is critical where violence has not been prevented The misBion ofthe Family Violence Unit is to oversee and facilitate the process by which domestic violence cases are invescigate3 and brought to successfiil resoluaon, facilitating quick intervention with o&'endere and assistanca to victims. The evaluation methods will be a combinatipn ofwritten surveys, fac�to-face interviews, c3ient feedback and aubstnntiaJ data ana►yyis. Pre- and post-implementation suzveys with victims will be one of the vehicles by which victim input, needs and safety are ensured. Comparative data analysis wi11 aiso be incorporated;nto the evatuation process, utiluing data &om the St. Paul Police Department and the Saint Peut Domesric Abuee bttervemion Project. Post-training participant evatuations wiil be conduaed by the Saint Paui Iatervention Project. Tracking and data analysis of repeat offenders and offenders at high riak of violent reoffenses is expected to increase the charging and sentencing of these perpetrators. The Unit wil] be able;o track ceses with the same invastigator being responsible for repeat cases. This early recognition of repeat offenders will allow greater initial focus on the investigation and facilitate the creation of a repeat offender database, much like the career criminal list. The Family votenee i7mt will beeome the central contact for all St. Paul domestic abuse victims and advocates. Victim6 will not have to contact other units to find out who is dealing with their case A stmng proto�l that addresses the nceds and safety ofthe victim is the focal point ofthe new unit. The pratocol wi11 atress rqaking the system more open and available to victims and also more sensitive to victims' needs. This will be measured irt the evaluation phase of the project through victim surveys, and data documenting improvaneiR in case handling and disposition. The collabortttion ttaclerstande that ttaining will play a crucial role in the success of this project, For this zeesan, data will be collected �nd analyzed Pertaining to azrest rates, and the numbec of cases submitted for charging. The true evaluation of the �ucpess pf this project will be seen 3n the next three to five years, with a reduction ovetall in domestic abuse cases; d'uectly related to holding perpetrators accountable for their abuse, reaponding swiftly and decigiveiy with tepeat offenses.

The St. Paul Polict Depattment has the essenrial spirit and resolve for guaranteeing the success of a Family Violence Unit. If the atcessary structure and pezsonnel was made available, our a�ency has no doubt of the Unit's ability to obtain its goals. The St. Paul Police Department began seeking input two yeats ago in conceiving the premise fot a model Family Violence Unit. Victim safety and input was at the top of thair agonda, The co]]aborative design for the madel is to: a) centralize and monitor al! crimes against the faznily, hoiding aU invostigations to the same high standazds, b) be victim centered, ensuring victim safety and empowerment in decisions; c) create a more efficient and rapid intervention in domestic abuse incidences; d) establish and nunure multi-discipline partnerships; e) assign more responsibility and accompanying aacountability to investigators; � develop and institute a strong protocol for family violence investigations, and g) educate and train all officers and investigators who respond to domestic violence ca!!s/cases on the new protocol. The training wi11 include the dynamics of domestic abuse and the needs of diverse cultural communities. The collabotative spirit of this model wi(1 continuc through the implementation phase, and throughout its tenure. The St Paul lntervention Project will work in elose partnership wiYh the Unit ensu�ng the needs of victims, assisting in training police personnel, collaborating in the on-going evaluation of the Unit, and serving as a conduit for victim input and satisfactiott. The Saint Pav] Domestic Abuse Intervention Project is a gass-roots otganization that exists to etiminate violence against women and their childreq and the social and system responses that condone or aliow its oppression. Our organization believes that domestic violence is a crime and every battered woman has the right to access the criminal justice system, reeeive �afety thraugh the laws that are designed to proteet her, and obtain ihe critical suppart and serviees she and her children deserve. We affirm that battered women must be free to make their own choices, have the tight to dignity and possess the capacity to make sound decisions if free from the violence thai obstructs these choices. We further believe that no one has the right to abuse anyone and no one deserves to be abused reg�rdloss of gender, race, socio-eeonomic background, age, mental or physical ability, se�ual orientation, spiritua] belief, or partnedmarita] status. We have operatet( ay a non-prof�t organ"uation since I984, to grovide direct advocaey, crisis intervention and suppozt to battered women and theu children; facilitate the system's response to domestic abuse; and provide education, prevemioa, and outteach to vicrims of domestic violence and the community at )arge. Annualiy, over 3,500 battered women receive direct services, over 10,000 informational packets are distributed and 2,400 more calls for support, informaUon end referrats on our 24-hour crisis line. Hundreds more battered women, members of the community, a�d women and c6iidren receive education, prevencion, intervention and advocacy services through our pnpgratna prpgram materiais and services are available in Spanish, �nglish, Hmong and Lao; additionaJ materials are a�go avaitable 'sn Vietnamese and Cambodian, and we are currendy translating our brochures into Russian Eaeh pgour nine programs, the Acute Intarventior4 Systems Advocacy, Community Outreac(x, Latino Family Violence, Southeast Asian battered women's, HospitaUClinic, Oldet Battered MRY-14-2061 16�15 6512923675 98i P.23 01/18/1995 17:17 6512923675 SAINT PAUL POLICE PAGE 24 D► -S'�1� Women's, Family Transitional, and Children's Advocacy and Support Program, operate within the unique framework oftheir own goels and objectives, but in collaboration with one another I'he Sai[rt Paul Inte�y�ntion praject stagreflects the culiurai and age diversity of the cammunities we sen�e.

The St. Paul Police Departmrnt was appoineed iu first Chief in 18i4, the ycar in which the city- w•as mcorporated. Thc Q�y of St. paul has a population of 287,151 and is approximately 55 square miles in area. Much of che character of ;he Se. Pau] Police Deparaneat, similar co the city it serves, dcri�es from the energy, growth and very disnnct and diverse personalities of iu ciry's neighborhoods. The strong neighborhoods, private and non-profit organizations, business�s and go��emment entities creace a rieh foundation for the City of St. Paul; enhanced with the frequen[ visits of the broader cemmunity of the metropolitan area'S 3.5 million residrnts. Whi]e considered to be a relarively safe c�ty, Sainc Paul has its share of the accompanying crime and socioeconomic issues associated with a city this size. The St. Paul Police Depa�rhnent u tenacious in its mission "co protect and to serve": procect the riehts ot each person �.�,th�n ics jurisdiction to be free from criminal attack, to be secure in their possessions, and to !rve in peace. The Depanntent is charged with responding to and investigating all crimes whieh occur withm the c�ty limits. To accomplish this rask ehe department has an authorized awom strength of 576 peace officers and 205 suppon scaf£ The departmem �s considered a "fu11 setvice" agenoy wjth the infrasWCture necessary to perfocm atl tuks related to la�� enforcement. The Saint Paul Po14ce DepaRment is dedicattd, and has a provrn commitment, to employing, retaming and promoting a staff that �s reflectivc of the diversity of the community it serves. In the past nine years the department has recru�ted and hired 211 females and 153 people of color, representing a respective increase of 139 °/, and 260%. Matenats and resources are ava�lable in three different languages, and over 300 couz[ certified interpmers aze on staff and on call to assist non-Engluh �peakme pecsons and the hearing impaired. The Depamnent and all its faciiities are handicapped accessible and distr�ct offices and/or substations are located at 14 different areas across the city. Over the past nine years the St. Paul Police Department has successfully woven community partnerships and collaborazions imo the enhre infrastructure ofthe Depattment. In 1992, Ctuef William Fmney, resol�•ed to ensurc that St Paul be a quality plaee to live For all its sesidents, began to jnsiill the philosophy and practue of convnuntry-policing, tailored specificalty to the un�que needs ofthe ciry. ahe results of the Cr.

To the Department these considerabie accomp6shments can feel iike hollow vicLOries ��'S �s when a citizen from our community is �ssa�ilted and teirorized by a family member or sameone they at one time £eit they could intimately mut. The St. Paul Pofice, in alliance with the Saint Paul Intervention Project and the suppon of the Joint City/County Prosecurian Tea� would like to create a modet Familv Yolence Unit to more effectivdy respond ta domestic riolence against women, better insure the victims� safery aad hold the perpetrators accountable for their violence. The St Paul Po6ce Departmeat has not and cannot alone address the issue of violence against women. The Saint Paul Poliee havt a tong and rieh history of working towards ending domestic violence; ranzing from developing and impiementing a conce�ttated domestic azsau3t enforcement policy /practice and establishing the Field Referral Uait responsible for resttaini�g ordtr violations and fotlow-up on cases where there was no arrest at the sceeq to begitmutg its peRnership ia 1984 wiRh the Saint Paui Domestic Abuse Intervention Project (a grass- roou battered women's progam) and participazing in numerous communiry and government initiacives which concentrate on domesdc abuse on a local, stat�wide, and national level. In the yeaz 2000, the St Paut Police Department responded to over 15,000 ca11s Por service in the area of domestic disputes, ofwhicb, appto�otnately 2,300 incidences of domestic assault were reported. These figures include Aggavated Domestic Asae�ilts, Misdemeanor pomestic Assaults, Gross Misdemeanors, Interference with 911 and Voiations of Orders for Protecdon This does not include the numezous number of sexua! assaults committed by a spousdpartner agamst the vicCm or the physical or sexual assault committed against a ctuld by a family member. CurrenUy there are 5ve people assigned to the issues surrounding violence against women, and those o�cers aad their divi5ions are spread tluoughout the Department. The priority the 5t. Paul Pofice I7epartment has piaced on responding to domestic violence issues has been heightened by a) understanding that domestie violence is cyctical in nature and wreaks havoc on e�ery facet of our socicty; b) knowledge that even though prevention is the ultimate goal, intervention is a very strong method of funue preventiott, due to the generational cycle of abuse, c) awazeness thas expeditious identification and prosecution of offenders is critical in ensuring victim's safety and/or that the perpetrators violence witt not be redirected to another victim, and d} recem initiatives and concentration ae the nationai level on issues of domestic abuse. "�'he goal of the St. Paul Poliee Departmrnt is to oversee and facilitate the process by which domestic violence cases are investigated and brought to success£ul resolution; facilitating quick inteivention with offenders and greater assistance and protection to victims, 'I'his gi�ant will assist the police department and its parcners in counteracting the esealation of, and hopefiilly one day eluninating domesvc violence; ttuough the creation of a model Famiiy Vidence Unit whoae efforts will vastly expand and enhance the legal action and standard af pcotectioa iu domestie asssult cases. The Fami]y volence Unit's goals would be to a) create att umbrella over ap crimes against the family within the St. Paul Police Depattmeet; b) strive to be victim centered and empower the virtim in decisions, c) create a moxe efficient imervetrtion in family violence cases; d) estabUsh and nurrirre multi-discipGne partnersfiips in acUieving this work; e) institute a strong protocol for family violence investigations; � assign more accountability and responsbility to imeatigators; g) educate and uain a(1 officers and invesrigators who respond co domestic violence calla/caaes on the ntw protocol, the dynamics o£ domestic abuse, and increased sensitivity to diverse commuairies. F�mds fl'om the VAWA gtant cvill be used to add two investigators to a newty created Family �olence Unit. Three additiona! po&ce officers w+il] be added in-kind from the Department's current strength. The Departmrnt Eee}s confident that the inception of a Family volence Unit, working in even closer collaboration with the $aiM pau] Inten project, Jouit City/Prosecution Team, and other community organizationa, aviE draenatically elange tAe v�e demeanor of domestic ahuse in our community and create a modei that couid bc repiicated across the state.

Evaluatioa is iategai to the success of this project. If we are to increase victim safety and decrease the number ofrepeat offepses, we must bt open to critical analysis and input. The expeditious identification and �roeecution ofoffanders is critical where violence has not been prevented The misBion ofthe Family Violence Unit is to oversee and facilitate the process by which domestic violence cases are invescigate3 and brought to successfiil resoluaon, facilitating quick intervention with o&'endere and assistanca to victims. The evaluation methods will be a combinatipn ofwritten surveys, fac�to-face interviews, c3ient feedback and aubstnntiaJ data ana►yyis. Pre- and post-implementation suzveys with victims will be one of the vehicles by which victim input, needs and safety are ensured. Comparative data analysis wi11 aiso be incorporated;nto the evatuation process, utiluing data &om the St. Paul Police Department and the Saint Peut Domesric Abuee bttervemion Project. Post-training participant evatuations wiil be conduaed by the Saint Paui Iatervention Project. Tracking and data analysis of repeat offenders and offenders at high riak of violent reoffenses is expected to increase the charging and sentencing of these perpetrators. The Unit wil] be able;o track ceses with the same invastigator being responsible for repeat cases. This early recognition of repeat offenders will allow greater initial focus on the investigation and facilitate the creation of a repeat offender database, much like the career criminal list. The Family votenee i7mt will beeome the central contact for all St. Paul domestic abuse victims and advocates. Victim6 will not have to contact other units to find out who is dealing with their case A stmng proto�l that addresses the nceds and safety ofthe victim is the focal point ofthe new unit. The pratocol wi11 atress rqaking the system more open and available to victims and also more sensitive to victims' needs. This will be measured irt the evaluation phase of the project through victim surveys, and data documenting improvaneiR in case handling and disposition.

If the atcessary structure and pezsonnel was made available, our a�ency has no doubt of the Unit's ability to obtain its goals. The St. Paul Police Department began seeking input two yeats ago in conceiving the premise fot a model Family Violence Unit. Victim safety and input was at the top of thair agonda, The co]]aborative design for the madel is to: a) centralize and monitor al! crimes against the faznily, hoiding aU invostigations to the same high standazds, b) be victim centered, ensuring victim safety and empowerment in decisions; c) create a more efficient and rapid intervention in domestic abuse incidences; d) establish and nunure multi-discipline partnerships; e) assign more responsibility and accompanying aacountability to investigators; � develop and institute a strong protocol for family violence investigations, and g) educate and train all officers and investigators who respond to domestic violence ca!!s/cases on the new protocol. The training wi11 include the dynamics of domestic abuse and the needs of diverse cultural communities. The collabotative spirit of this model wi(1 continuc through the implementation phase, and throughout its tenure. The St Paul lntervention Project will work in elose partnership wiYh the Unit ensu�ng the needs of victims, assisting in training police personnel, collaborating in the on-going evaluation of the Unit, and serving as a conduit for victim input and satisfactiott. The Saint Pav] Domestic Abuse Intervention Project is a gass-roots otganization that exists to etiminate violence against women and their childreq and the social and system responses that condone or aliow its oppression. Our organization believes that domestic violence is a crime and every battered woman has the right to access the criminal justice system, reeeive �afety thraugh the laws that are designed to proteet her, and obtain ihe critical suppart and serviees she and her children deserve. We affirm that battered women must be free to make their own choices, have the tight to dignity and possess the capacity to make sound decisions if free from the violence thai obstructs these choices. We further believe that no one has the right to abuse anyone and no one deserves to be abused reg�rdloss of gender, race, socio-eeonomic background, age, mental or physical ability, se�ual orientation, spiritua] belief, or partnedmarita] status. We have operatet( ay a non-prof�t organ"uation since I984, to grovide direct advocaey, crisis intervention and suppozt to battered women and theu children; facilitate the system's response to domestic abuse; and provide education, prevemioa, and outteach to vicrims of domestic violence and the community at )arge.
