<DIV>Fred,</DIV>
<DIV>Just so you know, the military already has a system like that in place. The way it works is a soldier or family member is accused of neglect, child, or spousal abuse. That case is presented before a multi-disciplinary board (law enforcement, social worker, mental health, drug and alcohol, ect), where it is decided to substantiate or unsubstantiated the allegation. It is different than the judicial system but if a case is substantiated that soldier or family member is referred to social services for personal counseling, \]5rwe0-6][</DIV>

The military has had a great deal of success with this program and u can contact Army Community Services for more information. I hope this can guide you in the right direction<BR><BR><B><I>"NORTH, FRED" <FRED.NORTH@po.state.ct.us></I></B> wrote:</DIV>
