What is IPV
• "Intimate partner" means: (a) Spouses, or domestic partners; (b)
former spouses, or former domestic partners; (c) persons who have a
child in common regardless of whether they have been married or
have lived together at any time; (d) adult persons presently or
previously residing together who have or have had a dating
relationship; (e) persons sixteen years of age or older who are
presently residing together or who have resided together in the past
and who have or have had a dating relationship; and (f) persons
sixteen years of age or older with whom a person sixteen years of age
or older has or has had a dating relationship.
Where we started
• 2018 YPD and City Prosecution met with Council to address the issue of domestic
violence.
• Created a domestic violence advocate position inside of Legal Dept.
• Spring 2021 YPD and City Prosecution agree to begin a joint project to address high
rates of domestic violence and recidivism.
• Committed to working together
• Researched best practices for domestic violence intervention
• Reconciliation of operational indifferences
• Created working partners to address issue on global scale
• July 2021 YPD and City Prosecution met with council.
• Lack of reliable data
• Estimated total domestic responses
• 35% of all arrest were DV related
• Developing a community coalition
• Operational group was being created
• Focus Deterrence Models were being researched for implementation
Economic Impact
• $66.00hr avg cost of a YPD officer >2500 incidents a year:
• Patrol officer: 3 hours avg (2 offcr min)
• Det Sgt.: 1 hr > Est. cost of DV a year:
• Detective: 1 hr (no follow up inv) >$3,750,000
• 4-8 hours when follow up required
• 8 hours court
• Est. cost YPD $1500.00

The Handle with Care program has enabled the Yakima School District to better
meet the needs of our most at-risk students. We have had over 300 students,
along with their siblings, experience traumatic experiences in their homes just in
the months of September through January. We know that these traumatic
experiences negatively impact our students by interfering with their social and
emotional well-being and hindering their ability to learn at their full capacity.
By receiving the Handle with Care notifications, our school administrators and
counselors are able to identify which students need additional care and support
and ensure that students are truly "handled with care". We know that
oftentimes, when students experience traumatic events, they may withdraw, act
out or simply not attend school. Having awareness of these incidents helps
inform how we intervene and support our students and families. This
information has been invaluable to our schools and our students. We have been
able to provide immediate support through counseling services, connecting
students and families to outside resources and by simply showing care and
support to our students. We are excited to expand our work with this program
and our community support systems.
