About
Welcome to the Kids and DV - Diversity Training Project Section. This section is designed to assist refuge workers and other practitioners, non-abusive parents, and care-givers, to work with children who have experienced domestic violence. It has a particular focus on immigrant and refugee children.
The section contains a resource manual, children's books (in English, Vietnamese, Bosnian, Spanish and Tagalog), and work sheets in English and various other community languages.
The resources can be downloaded and used directly with children, to help them express their concerns, fears and other feelings. Hard copies of the resources are available from the Immigrant Womens Support Service.
The project is aimed at helping children come to terms with the effects of domestic violence and minimise its adverse consequences.
