Select Condition 
Book Overview
With the belief that intervention should be available to all members of families experiencing domestic violence, the authors of this book provide practitioners with the necessary knowledge base to operate successfully a group programme for children of battered women. The programme, aimed at children aged from four to 12 years, provides a framework for healing and education. Peled and Davis guide readers through an initial child assessment, with sample intake forms provided in an appendix. They then describe both group sessions for the children that take place over a 10-week period and concurrently run parenting skills groups. The authors go on to detail a family session which marks the conclusion of the programme.

Great resource
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
This is a great resource for practitioners that work with children of domestic violence. I have referred to it myself for group ideas, and ways of managing the group. It is unfortunate that it is unavailable on this site. They have an updated version of the group layouts on their website.
