In total, five respondents answered eleven questions. This thesis aims to thoroughly and accurately describe the activities of the centre, and chart the occurring problems which the organisation deals with based on the conducted research.

Diploma thesis Batterer intervention programs as a way of increasing an effectiveness of prevention of domestic violence on women in the Czech Republic deals with the issue of domestic violence against women and its impact on the Czech state budget. On example of the impact of domestic violence on children as witnesses of this violence, I try to explain that through strengthening a prevention of domestic violence (public awareness, programs for children and therapeutic work with perpetrators) the economic impact could be reduce. The main aim of this study is to define all economic losses associated with domestic violence against women, describe how is domestic violence solved by government and whether this solution reflects the high risk of transmitting of violent patterns from parent to child.

Help Intervention Center Vysočina Region - Socio-legal Aspects of Social Service Provision
SVOBODOVÁ, Vendula
The main objective of the thesis was to map possibilities of a co-operation among the intervention centre and other entities interested in helping to people threatened by the domestic violence. The current status was taken from the professional literature. There is described an issue of the domestic violence, types and forms of the domestic violence, its characteristics and dynamics, causes, consequences, legal framework of the domestic violence, its actors, entities helping to people threatened by the domestic violence and an interdisciplinary co-operation. The qualitative research was used in the thesis. A tool for the data collection was a semi-standardized interview. Questions were based on theme ranges concerning the examined issue. The research sample consisted of 13 workers of the entities helping to people at risk of the domestic violence in the Highland (Vysočina) region. The research showed that the domestic violence is a very wide-spread and still underestimated issue. At the same time it is seen a considerable progress in the area of the help to people at risk by the domestic violence. Further the research showed that workers do not exactly know services provided by the Intervention Centre of the Highland (Vysočina) region. Thanks to this fact there can occur a disinformation of people threatened by the domestic violence. The staff can determine the most often demanded help from the side of the potential service users. They can also recognize that not always it is about the help the intervention centre is able to provide. The research does not confirm that the personnel generally would be influenced by prejudices at their work with people at risk by the domestic violence. But they were certainly also in their professional life influenced by a personal experience with the domestic violence that acquired in their neighbourhood. The research raised a possibility of a co-operation among the intervention centre and other entities, namely organizing case conferences. This thesis can be used in practice for an acquisition or addition of professional experience related to the issue of the domestic violence and available provided services.

Protection of a Person Suffering from Domestic Violence
FARKAŠOVÁ, Monika
Protection of a Person Suffering from Domestic Violence The bachelor{\crq}s thesis addresses protection of persons suffering from domestic violence with regard to the operation of Act No. 135/2006 of the Collection of Laws of the Czech Republic (Coll.). The theoretical part is divided into five parts. The first part characterizes domestic violence and describes its specific features and impacts on a person at risk. The second part addresses international protection of human rights. The third part is focused on the legislation in the Czech Republic. The fourth part characterizes individual kinds of help in cases of domestic violence. The last part contains data on the implemented researches and statistics. The objective of the bachelor{\crq}s thesis was to evaluate legal opportunities of protection of a person at risk and, among others, to compare the opportunities existing before and after Act No. 135/2006 Coll. came into operation, to evaluate practical utilization of the legal opportunities of protection from domestic violence from the view of both persons at risk and experts in the domestic violence issue, and to raise hypotheses on the basis of the research. The research was made by the qualitative method, in the form of a semi-structured interview. Eight respondents were selected from persons at risk (four from an intervention centre and four from a refuge) and from experts (four in total). The bachelor{\crq}s thesis has fulfilled the set objectives stated in chapters ``Results{\crq}q and ``Discussion{\crq}q. Hypotheses that can be verified by future quantitative research have been raised. On the basis of the research, I recommend focusing on the issue of cross-disciplinary cooperation in the future. New findings have been revealed, among others missing legislative measures regulating the contact between a child and the expelled parent.

The Issue of Domestic Violence in connection with the act (number ) 135/2006
STŘELCOVÁ, Hana
Domestic violence has been an urgent problem also in the Czech Republic. The necessity to solve its complexity upon level of the state, not only through non governmental, non-profit-making institutions, is especially expressed by adopting Act No.135/2006 Collection of Laws, by which some acts in scope of domestic violence protection are amended. This Act allows the Police of the Czech Republic to banish an offender committing domestic violence from mutual residence for a period of 10 days and the Act has established a new social service the so called ``Intervention Centre{\crq}q, i.e. a specialized facility that provides help with people who are endangered by domestic violence. The objective was to find out the level of public awareness, knowledge of the Intervention Centres in the Moravia-Silesian and Pilsen Regions. Within the first year of that Act operating, there were the least banished offenders v. s. number of inhabitants, just in the Pilsen Region and there were the most ones in the Moravia-Silesian Region. The theoretical work part describes forms of violence in the family, historical relationship of violent actions with women, possibilities how to prevent them or advised help measures to victims of domestic violence. Further, it is focussed on a legislative solution of that problem area in the Czech Republic and some of European countries or the USA as well. The practical work part involves results of a quantity research that was aimed to discovery of public awareness of the Intervention Centres. The research was performed by method of questioning in a way of a questionnaire. The research was focussed on consciousness of general public relating to domestic violence, whether the research respondents have ever met that phenomenon or what is their opinion on information effectiveness of the problem area. The research demonstrated low awareness of the Intervention Centres of inhabitants in both regions. However, most respondents know what domestic violence is. Nearly one third of interviewees have got certain experience with domestic violence. Majority of respondents consider the information on the Intervention Centres and domestic violence as generally useful. This work may be used to increase public awareness of the Intervention Centres or on the other side to provide the Intervention Centres employees with general public{\crq}s reflection as to availability and activity of the Intervention Centres.
