The North Rhine-Westphalia State Prevention Council (LPR NRW)
The State Prevention Council of North Rhine-Westphalia is a body set up by the state government and made up of experts from several departments of the state government, organizations, associations and clubs that are active in the field of crime prevention in North Rhine-Westphalia.
The term perpetrator work refers to work with male perpetrators of domestic violence. The core objective of perpetrator work is to put a sustainable end to violent behavior in order to improve victim protection and violence prevention.
Victim support requires networking - round tables against violence
Round tables are meetings at which representatives of different interest groups (e.g. authorities, institutions, associations or parties, but also affected persons) discuss a matter together and on an equal footing.
The police provide information about risks, warn against crime and give specific tips for protection. The nationwide prevention work helps to identify and prevent violence and crime at an early stage.
