About this service
The overall objective of the program is to stop the inter-generational cycle of abuse by teaching children non-violent ways of resolving conflict and by promoting the process of healing.
The impact of exposure to domestic violence on children has been documented for two decades by clinical research. Research studies show that children who witness or experience violence are at considerable risk of developing a range of physical, psychological, and behavioural problems. Exposure to violence can result in: headaches, abdominal pains, stuttering, enuresis, sleep disturbances, eating problems, acting overly responsible, poor concentration, low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, phobias, withdrawal, aggression, defiance, suicidal thoughts and post traumatic stress disorder.
Who can use it?
