New research co-authored by Heart Home Network Child & Youth Counselling Lead, Sandrine, explores the impact of second-stage domestic violence shelters on children's resilience.
Published in the Journal of Multidisciplinary Healthcare, the study highlights the role of safety, stability, professional support, caregiver wellbeing and other protective factors in supporting children’s adjustment and resilience.
The findings contribute to a growing understanding of how trauma-informed and developmentally responsive approaches can support children and families following domestic violence.
Congratulations to Sandrine on this important contribution to research in the field!
