What We Do

Fox Valley Court Watch monitors domestic violence court proceedings, documents courtroom practices, and provides feedback intended to strengthen victim safety, public safety, and abuser accountability.

Trained volunteers attend public court proceedings and observe with care, consistency, and respect.

We collect structured observations to identify patterns and better understand courtroom practices.

We share summaries and reports that help the public understand how local courts respond to domestic violence and related issues.

We provide feedback intended to influence court practices, strengthen accountability, and support safer outcomes for victims and the public.


Fox Valley Court Watch depends on trained volunteers who help observe court proceedings and support public accountability. No legal background is required—just a commitment to careful observation and community service.
