About Children Exposed to Violence
Each year millions of children are exposed to violence in their homes and communities. Exposure to violence, particularly multiple exposures, can interfere with children's ability to think and learn and can disrupt the course of healthy physical, emotional, and intellectual development. Exposure to violence is associated with increased use of health and mental health services and increased risk of involvement with the child welfare and juvenile justice systems.
