Eddie Zacapa, who is currently the founder of Life Enriching Communication and an NVC trainer in the Sacramento area, trained facilitators in Nonviolent Communication (NVC) and used a curriculum that was NVC-based at The Center for Violence-Free Relationships. Zacapa, who was the Positive Solutions Director at The Center, decided to check on recidivism rates for 2008 graduates from the batterer intervention program in 2013 and discovered that none of the graduates got prosecuted for any domestic violence charges.
