Domestic Abuse Intervention Programs, based in Duluth, Minnesota, operates as both a local intervention program and a national training initiative. It provides services including men’s non-violence programming, victim advocacy, and a child visitation/parenting center for the Duluth area. The organization helped establish The Duluth Model, a coordinated community response to domestic violence that emphasizes written procedures and protocols governing intervention and prosecution of criminal domestic assault cases. This framework is recognized internationally as a leading tool for reducing violence against women and children, and it was among the first to outline multidisciplinary procedures to protect and advocate for victims. DAIP offers training, consultation, and resources based on The Duluth Model to support activists, practitioners in the criminal and civil justice systems, human service providers, and community leaders in addressing domestic violence. A widely used educational resource associated with the model is the Power and Control wheel.
