IPV Reports

________________________________

Statistics (Connecticut IPV)

• In Connecticut, there are approximately 20,000 family violence incidents annually resulting in at least one arrest.
• Seventy three percent (73%) were intimate partner violence incidents.
• The DCF internal data on families also shows that violence is occurring within homes in Connecticut, as indicated with the following 2014 DCF data.
• In Calendar years 2014, the Department received 30,566 reports.
• Of those reports, there were allegations of intimate partner violence in 6,322 reports.
• In regards to the Intimate Partner Violence reports, sixty-eight percent (68%) were served through the investigation track.
• Thirty-two percent (32%) through the Family Assessment Response (FAR), DCF’s Differential Response track.
• Approximately 40% of these families are referred to our community partner agencies with IPV-related concerns.
• In 2014, Forty-nine percent (49%) of the IPV reports, had co-occurring IPV and substance use, consistent with studies that indicate a very strong intersection between IPV and substance use.
• Studies of IPV frequently indicate high rates of alcohol and other drug use by offenders during abuse. Not only do offenders tend to abuse drugs and alcohol, but IPV also increased the probability that victims will use alcohol and drugs to cope with abuse. Consistently over the last 13 years, the number and percent of accepted reports that include allegations of intimate partner violence from calendar year 2000 through calendar year 2014 remain consistent at approximately 21%. This reflects only the reports that are received and accepted with allegations of IPV and does not reflect the additional instances of IPV discovered through assessment.
• In 2014, approximately 48% of reports with an IPV indicator were substantiated.

United States IPV Statistics:

(statistics from The National Coalition Against Domestic Violence)

• Every 9 seconds in the US a woman is assaulted or beaten.
• In the United States, an average of 20 people are physically abused by intimate partners every minute. This equates to more than 10 million abuse victims annually.
• 1 in 3 women and 1 in 4 men have been physically abused by an intimate partner.
• 1 in 5 women and 1 in 7 men have been severely physically abused by an intimate partner.
• 1 in 7 women and 1 in 18 men have been stalked. Stalking causes the target to fear she/he or someone close to her/him will be harmed or killed.
• The presence of a gun in a domestic violence situation increases the risk of homicide by 500%.
• Domestic violence accounts for 15% of all violent crime.
• Domestic violence is most common among women between the ages of 18-24.
• 19% of domestic violence involves a weapon.
• Domestic victimization is correlated with a higher rate of depression and suicidal behavior.
