Understanding and Addressing the Impact of Domestic Violence on Children
This training session is a part of our 2022 Community Response to Child Abuse Conference. Purchase of this content opens access to all 19 sessions and corresponding continuing education credits.
Jurisdictions across the country are looking for new ways to address the impact of domestic violence on children, including incorporating parenting after violence into existing abusive partner intervention programming and how to support children involved in the child welfare system as a result of domestic violence. This presentation will invite attendees to reflect on the strengths and needs of their communities in addressing the impact of domestic violence on children and offer strategies to create programming for the abusive parent and how child welfare practitioners can best meet these needs through an interdisciplinary approach of trauma-informed and developmentally appropriate court information and guidance, including through the use of interactive child witness support materials.
