Adds training concerning coercive control to domestic violence training for judges and law enforcement officers.

S 2974 requires New Jersey judges, law enforcement officers, and court personnel to receive updated domestic violence training that specifically covers recognizing coercive control. Coercive control refers to patterns of manipulation that isolate or control a partner (like restricting access to friends, monitoring movements, or threatening immigration status). The bill amends existing training requirements to mandate this content as part of annual in-service training for all relevant personnel. It directly affects judges handling domestic violence cases, police officers, and court staff who process domestic violence complaints. The training will cover indicators of coercive control as defined in current law (N.J.S.A. 2C:25-29), including isolation, monitoring, and threats.
