2 Introduction A growing number of criminal courts in the U.S. and internationally handle domestic violence cases on separate calendars, termed domestic violence courts. Yet, a running list of these courts, their locations, and contact information did not previously exist. The present National Compendium of Domestic s seeks to address this important information gap. The Compendium serves as a companion document to A National Portrait of Domestic Violence s, a study examining the goals, policies, and practices adopted by criminal domestic violence courts nationwide (Labriola et al. 2009). 1 The Compendium provides contact information for 208 confirmed criminal domestic violence courts within the United States as of December These courts handle criminal domestic violence cases on a separate calendar or assign criminal domestic violence cases to one or more dedicated judges or judicial officers. The development of the Compendium involved several strategies. The first was a review of prior research conducted on domestic violence courts and court-based programs to identify the names and locations for all criminal domestic violence courts that had previously been identified. 2 Subsequent efforts included contacting state administrative court offices and state domestic violence coalitions to inquire about any domestic violence courts in their jurisdiction. These strategies were supplemented by internet research, used both to identify additional domestic violence courts and to confirm information or suggestions that were received from other sources. Each identified court then received a policy survey. Survey respondents that confirmed that they qualified remained, whereas courts indicating that they did not in fact meet the criteria for a domestic violence court were removed. Non-respondent courts were contacted by phone in order to determine their eligibility status. Accordingly, the final Compendium is ultimately based upon direct confirmation from a court professional who works at each site. The Compendium includes contact information for 208 domestic violence courts located across 32 states and the territory of Guam and is organized alphabetically by state or territory of origin. This research was supported by award #2006-WG-BX-0001 from the National Institute of Justice of the U.S. Department of Justice to the Center for Innovation, which worked in collaboration with staff from the Judicial Council of California, Administrative Office of the s, Center for Families, Children & the s as well as independent contractor Chris O Sullivan.
