ArticlePublication details: Harrisburg, PA. : VAWnet: a project of the National Resorce Center on Domestic Violence, Pennsylvania Coalition against Domestic Violence, 2006Description: electronic document; HTMLSubject(s): Online resources: Summary: Public attention to the effects of children's exposure to adult domestic violence has increased over the last decade. This attention focuses on both the impact of the exposure on children's development and on the likelihood that exposed children may be at greater risk for becoming either a child victim of physical or sexual abuse or an adult perpetrator of domestic violence. New research, policies, and programs focused on these children have resulted. These new efforts are reviewed in this document and an argument is made that the diversity of children's experiences requires equally diverse responses from our communities. (from the document)
