FAMILY COURT ENHANCEMENT PROJECT (FCEP)

The Family Court Enhancement Project (FCEP) is a demonstration initiative funded by the Department of Justice, Office on Violence Against Women. The project was designed to build the capacity of the four FCEP sites' court systems to improve custody decision-making in the context of domestic violence. The four court sites are located in Cook County, Illinois (Chicago), the State of Delaware (all three counties), Hennepin County, Minnesota (Minneapolis), and Multnomah County, Oregon (Portland).
