Child to Parent Violence and Abuse Webinar, presented by Associate Professor Anita Gibbs
The first two webinars explored this area of family violence which is ‘almost taboo’ in our society, but very real for families and those attempting to offer support and interventions. These webinars include:
– exploring the phenomena of adolescent to parent and caregiver violence and abuse
– the impacts on different family members
– the responses of professionals and strategies that might be effective in managing and reducing family distress and misery
– opportunities for question and interactions and collaborative participation and problem solving.
The third webinar was a live Q&A session addressing questions arising from the first two webinars.
