The IMPROVE Checklist for Intervention in Domestic Violence

Domestic Violence interventions require careful, consistent, and victim-centered action.
The IMPROVE Checklist for Intervention was developed to help police officers and law enforcement across Europe carry out every step of the process safely and effectively.

The checklist was created by the GAMA unit of Policía Local de Valencia, a specialized task force dedicated to protecting victims of domestic violence since 2003.
