There is growing evidence of the health effects caused by family violence ranging from fatal (homicide, suicide, maternal mortality) to non-fatal (physical health, mental health, chronic conditions, reproductive health issues, and negative health behaviours). Negative impacts of family violence on children are wide ranging and profound.<\/p>\n<p>Today\u2019s Grand Round will explore these impacts and appropriate responses to family violence in a paediatric context.<\/p>\n<p><strong>SPEAKER<\/strong>:Professor Cathy Humphreys holds the Alfred Felton Chair in Child and Family Welfare, a chair which is now supported through the Sector Research Partnership, a collaboration with the Centre for Excellence in Child and Family Welfare and a consortium of 14 Victorian community sector organisations which are driving research in the children, youth and families area. Her research in the domestic violence area includes projects on: substance use; mental health; child abuse; multiagency working and reform. A three year action research project, Talking To My Mum developed activity books to strengthen the mother-child relationship. More recently research projects have focused on the domestic violence policy reform in Victoria, Australia; and a the development of differential pathways to services for children living with family violence.\u00a0 Engaging men who use violence in relation to their fathering is a new ARC program of research. She has published more than 65 refereed journal articles including a recently published book with Lesley Laing and Kate Cavanagh: Domestic Violence and Social Work, Critical and Reflective Practice, Sage, London, 2013.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There is growing evidence of the health effects caused by family violence ranging from fatal (homicide, suicide, maternal mortality) to non-fatal (physical health, mental health, chronic conditions, reproductive health issues, and negative health behaviours).
