Child witnesses of DV


	There has been some recent debate about the issue of child
protection investigations triggered when police or other service providers
trying to assist battered women recognize that their children have been
exposed to domestic violence. Does anyone know of any communities or
groups that have developed protocols for trying to specify conditions
under which child protective reports might be warranted or guidelines for
police, shelter workers and others who work with wife abuse victims? Do
anyone know of any research going on on this topic?
