Coordinated Community Action Plan
This model demonstrates, in abbreviated form, ways communities can accountably
act to support battered women and children, and hold batters accountable for their
behavior. It is not a definitive representation. This model primarily identifies
heterosexual males as Perpetrators of domestic violence (DV), as they comprise 95%
of the batterers in this country. This model was developed by Mike Jackson and David
Garvin with the feedback of over 118 reviewers. We are grateful for their input, and
acknowledge the Domestic Abuse Intervention Project for the wheel format. Permission
to reproduce is given if there are no changes and credit is given. Please make copies
and distribute them for your public education efforts (to obtain an 18 x 24 poster of
