These vary from provider to provider. Some may last only 1 day others may last for as much as 90 days with about half those spent in 1 hour sessions. Contact the agency they are involved with and they can tell you more about the program that specific agency offers.
Ask the courts administrator about who to talk regarding these courses.
Usually it is based on the Psychological Tests, a program is then developed for each individuals needs based upon assessment, to assist that person in dealings, rehabilitation etc., so the program(s) could be quite detailed, or they could be very simple, depending on the needs assessment.
I have actually been there. I was charged with the same thing and Probation told me to do an Anger Management course within 6 months. So they were all pretty much the same when I had called around. The course was every Tuesday for 1 hour for 10 weeks. As far as the Domestic Violence course, I cant help you there.
hopefully, a long time. your friend may consider that the relationship with the gf is volatile. perhaps living apart & focusing on himself can help the healing process & keep him out of trouble. when it’s broken, it’s okay to fix it!
He was told he CAN live with his girlfriend? That doesn’t sound right. But the courses will last as long as the judge says. Also during the sessions if they think he needs more time they can submit that to the courts and make him go longer.
The one approved by my court is 26 weeks long.
you need to call your local services…they’re not all the same.
