After four years as a national demonstration projection, HomeFront established itself as an independent agency in March 2004. HomeFront's success is attributed to ongoing collaboration and partnerships across law enforcement, the criminal justice system and community social service agencies. With the implementation of HomeFront a specialized domestic violence docket (first appearance) court was established in Calgary in May 2000. A trial court was later opened in March of 2005.
