Hello,

You may be interested in the following documents, as well as the resources they
lead to (though they are not specifically program related).

Exposed to Woman Abuse/Family Violence
- Wife Abuse - The Impact on Children

If you are interested in a copy, please send me your mailing coordinates and I
will mail them out to you - or request a copy by calling 1-800-267-1291

----------------------

We also have a number of videos that deal with this issue. They are available
for purchase through the distributor, or you  may borrow a copy from National
Film Board partner libraries across Canada. Items of interest include:

- What About Us: A Group Counselling Tool to Help Children Cope with the
Experience of Having Witnessed Their Mothers Being Abused
- Make a Difference: How to Respond to Child Witnesses of Woman Abuse
- Seen But Not Heard: A Docu-Drama About the Serious Emotional and Physical

Subject:  Programs for kids who have witnessed violence




Hello everyone,
I'm participating in a service providers group in metro Halifax who are
concerned about the lack of programs for children and youth who have
witnessed family violence.  We have a few (read not adequate) services for
men and women but not one for kids.

We are in the midst of writing a proposal for funding and need to explore
"best practices" in this area. Any suggestions??  Information on individual
and group programs would be most helpful.
