Find a Batterers’ Intervention Program
In Florida, a Batterers’ Intervention Program (BIP) is a state-certified, 29-week program designed to hold individuals accountable for acts of domestic violence and teach nonviolent relationship skills.
Participation may be court-ordered following a domestic violence arrest or required as part of a probation agreement. These programs are not anger management—they’re structured to address power and control dynamics, challenge harmful beliefs, and promote long-term behavioral change. Florida law requires BIPs to follow specific standards set by the Florida Department of Children and Families (DCF).

Important: If someone you know is ordered to attend a BIP, it does not guarantee your safety. Always seek support from a certified domestic violence center or hotline: 1-800-500-1119.
