A Domestic Violence Registry has been established in New Jersey with the goal of protecting victims and assisting in the reduction of abuse. The register maintains thorough records of anyone convicted of domestic abuse offences, making this data available to law enforcement, potential employers, and interested parties. The register aims to empower potential victims, inspire accountability among offenders, and support informed decision-making for people entering new relationships or making hiring decisions by increasing transparency and awareness. By taking preventive measures, the state hopes to improve public safety and combat domestic violence.
