Transform | A BIPP Certification Program
Transform is a State Approved BIPP Certification Program. Our vision for Transform is to provide an on-going interactive training program that integrates the restorative justice principles based on nonviolence. Our holistic approach coupled with our spiritually based curriculum are effective tools when working with men who use violence against women.

A Spanish translation for our Spanish speaking clients and the agencies that serve them is now available.
TRANSFORM Workbook
STOP ABUSE and TRANSFORM YOUR LIFE presents a holistic battering intervention program with the mission of helping men who abuse women stop abusing them and transform their lives. The program contemplates reading the book, writing answers to questions at the end of each chapter, and discussing the responses and related issues in small groups.
FACILITATOR'S Manual
The TRANSFORM Battering Intervention Program Facilitator Manual is a guidebook for individuals facilitating small group BIPP meetings that use Stop Abuse and Transform Your Life as a curriculum for helping men charged with domestic abuse stop abusing and change their lives. It outlines the basic principles of the TRANSFORM program, presents a recommended process for BIPP small groups, lists the Texas Department of Criminal Justice accreditation guidelines for BIPPs, explains the facilitator’s role and responsibilities, and offers suggestions for leading each of twenty-five group sessions.

"Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom."
Our Philosophy
A Holistic Battering Intervention Program
01
Abuse, You, and God
Helps you understand the problem of abuse and your need to change by exploring what abuse is, your life story, and the role of Faith. More importantly, it emphasizes your need to stop abusive behavior immediately, as the
first step in your journey.
03
Maintaining Peace
Helps abusers handle some difficult situations that often are forks in the road that require choices (anger, substance abuse, communication, sexual respect, fatherhood, trust, and working together). This Part provides you with tools to make the right choices and live a life of peace without abusing.
02
Restoring Peace
Helps you continue your journey by making a U-turn in your life. Based largely on principles of the Bible and restorative justice (repentance, responsibility, accountability, confession, forgiveness, restitution, and reconciliation), it is intended to help restore or improve relationships that have been broken by past abuse, if doing so is feasible and appropriate.
04
Future Plans
Helps you develop a plan for doing the right things to continue to live a life of peace without abusing others.
