Children’s
Services
Services provided to child and teen victims of domestic
violence include one-on-one counseling, support group and advocacy.
These services are provided in an effort to help the children feel safe
and listened to and to provide access to knowledge and resources. During
counseling or in support group we address:
• Safety Planning
• Defining violence and abuse
• Identifying and expressing feelings
• Settling conflict appropriately
• Making and keeping friends
• Building self confidence
We give children and teens the opportunity to talk and
share what their experience has been like and what they would like to
see happen in their future. Safety planning is an important part of
this program. We explore with them how they have stayed safe in the
past and help them discover ways they can stay safe in the future.
