Child to Parent Violence: European Perspectives



Child to Parent Violence:
European Perspectives

Wed 28th & Thurs 29th January 2015
University of Brighton, England


  

Child to parent violence is an emerging problem with more parents talking about their experiences of abuse at the hands of their children and adolescents. The abuse can arise for a range of different reasons and many practitioners struggle to respond effectively.

A two-year Daphne-funded study on responding to child to parent violence (CPV) will be completed early in 2015.  This important conference will report our findings from across Europe on CPV and will give you the chance to explore the subject in relevant and interactive ways.
