Navy Family Advocacy Program: The Demographics of Family Violence in the Navy and Marine Corps.

Abstract

This report is an analysis of data relating to the Family Advocacy Program. Individual case reports of family violance made to the Navy Central Registry for a two year period were analyzed alongside reporting data on civilian child abuse and neglect. These two data sets were examined in relation to the general population of sponsors and dependents in the US Navy and Marine Corps, as well as the general US population. The purpose of these analyses is not only to describe the individuals and families identified, but also to better understand the characteristics of the population at risk, or more likely to be involved in spouse abuse, child maltreatment and sexual assault. Additionally, this data addresses the types of responses that have been made to these individuals and families in terms of treatment, services and personnel decisions.
