Abstract: 

While police-involved domestic violence is a problem, the role of law enforcement remains a key to reducing domestic violence as part of the critical first level of response. The critical systemic question addressed here is what works to reduce officer-involved domestic violence. Examples for developing a multipronged strategy in Florida and Washington are cited as well as recommondations for training and policy.
