In the United States, a Batterers' Intervention Program (BIP) is a program that batterers attend, usually as part of the legal system response to an act of domestic violence.  A batterer may also attend a program voluntarily.  A BIP can play an important role in a coordinated community response to domestic violence, but it is important that victim safety and offender accountability remain the primary goals of a BIP.  Other goals may include education and rehabilitation of the batterer. In the US, if the batterer is referred to a BIP by a court or state agency, attendance and completion of the BIP are monitored by that agency.
