National Judicial Institute on Domestic Violence

Welcome to the NJIDV

Formed in 1998, the National Judicial Institute on Domestic Violence is a dynamic partnership among the U.S. Department of Justice, Office on Violence Against Women, the Family Violence Prevention Fund and the National Council of Juvenile and Family Court Judges. The NJIDV has provided highly interactive, skills-based domestic violence workshops for judges and judicial officers nationwide since 1999. During the past 10 years, the NJIDV has developed a continuum of judicial education that currently includes the Enhancing Judicial Skills in Domestic Violence Cases (EJS) Workshop, Continuing Judicial Skills in Domestic Violence Cases (CJS) Program, Enhancing Judicial Skills in Elder Abuse Cases Workshop, Faculty Development, and Technical Assistance for state and regional adaptation and replication of NJIDV programs.
