of intimate partner violence and non-offending parents of child abuse victims within FAP. To do so
effectively, FAP VA’s must demonstrate a certain level of training and experience in working with
families who are dealing with domestic abuse. Per DoDM 6400.01 all advocates must have a bachelor’s
degree in social work, sociology, psychology, criminal justice or related social or behaviors science fiend
from an accredited university or college. The OPM allows education to be substituted with a
combination of education and experience in some cases. In addition, DoDM 6400.01 mandates that an
application must also have a minimum of two years’ experience providing advocacy services to victims
of domestic violence or sexual assault. FAP VA’s must already have or be able to obtain within a sixmonth time of hire the National Advocate Credentialing Program credential with every two years
obtaining CEU’s to keep that credential current. FAP VA program and goals NAVINST 1752.2B:

advocacy, education/training and public awareness and group facilitation. FAP VA’s are mandated

4. Personal and Professional Impacts
I am grateful that I am able to do this work and the Navy has a space for not only an intervention and
treatment model but also awareness and prevention. I have worked in the field of advocacy, prevention,
intervention and treatment for 10 years both in the non-profit and government sectors and feel
confident in the work that FAP and the Navy is doing to reduce and eliminate intimate partner and child
abuse. It is imperative that we continue to make collaborative efforts with Commands, community
partners and the courts to hold offenders accountable and offer viable treatment options so that they
too can move forward in a healthy manner, regardless if it is with their family members whom have
endured the abuse. While working in such a field it is so vital that you have supportive colleagues to
process, case staff, and collaborate with. I am surrounded by intelligent, compassionate, treatment
focused individuals who see that domestic violence isn’t something people generally choose to do by
saying, “I’m going to abuse my spouse today”. Studies show that people who have undergone trauma,
people who have been exposed to violence and grew up with the mindset that only the strong survive as
they relate that to violence will continue that cycle without ever being taught or fully understanding that
abusing your partner and your children is not okay. What we find is that the acts of domestic violence
are learned behaviors and thankfully the Navy and many community agencies offer treatment methods
of how to better cope with situations, how to regulate emotions and express them in a healthier way,
how to be able to stand up for what you believe in without using acts of violence against your family and
have equality in a relationship. I see justice working daily in both small and large ways, and ultimately
me having even a small part in one’s journey by supporting, advocating and empowering them to
essentially become (more) self-sufficient, make decisions on their own and see that they are strong
capable individuals is why I do the work I do.
