About this service
Approximately two to six children and youth in every Canadian classroom have experienced and/or witnessed some form of abuse in the home over the past year.
These children and youth often experience the same types of emotional and behavioural problems experienced by those who have been abused themselves.
CVTS offers the PEACE Program for children and youth, aged 3 to 18, who have experienced and/or witnessed abuse.
The program helps children and youth to:
Identify their feelings and express them in healthy ways.
Recognize their strengths and increase their self-confidence.
Understand what abuse is and that they are not responsible.
Identify support networks and develop a safety plan.
Explore stereotypes and myths about relationships and about violence in the media.
Develop conflict resolution skills.
