Juneau Choice & Accountability Program (JCAP)
Domestic violence is 100% preventable.
JCAP offers a 24-week intervention program that utilizes the Men at Work curriculum. In this course, men discuss how to be healthy partners, fathers, and community members. The course has 3 units: Defining the Problem, The Impact of Men’s Violence Against Women, and Manhood Revisited. You will be asked to examine beliefs, attitudes, and actions around the issues of abuse, violence, gender, race, class, and traditional male/female roles.
All students are required to complete assigned readings, tasks, and projects that address male violence against women. Completion is based on your attendance and submission of all assignments. Information on the class’s requirements will be available to you at the information meeting.
JCAP collaborates with community agencies to create an individualized plan for participants. Flexible payment plans are available, as are community work service options. We accept court referrals, individuals referred by OCS or other agencies, and self-referrals.
The Juneau Choice & Accountability Program is commited to the following:
- Eliminating violence against women and children
- Providing safety for victims
- Teaching alternatives to violence
- Holding offenders accountable for family violence.
