Speaker needed

["Anna K. Hagemeister" <ahagemeister@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Regarding needing a speaker for your conference in Oakland.  I would 
suggest that you contact Dr. Jeffrey Edleson in the School of Social 
Work at the U of MN.  He has spoken a great deal on this topic and is 
currently the co-invesitgator on a project funded by the Packard 
Foundation in Los Altos, California which is exploring the overlap 
between battering and child maltreatment.  We have just begun data 
collection on this project.  Dr. Edleson also has extensive 
background in evaluating domestic violence programs and in wokring 
with batterer's programs. 

You can contact him directly at:  
magd@maroon.tc.umn.edu OR
(612) 624-8795, and you can see our research project web page at the 
following URL:  www.mincava.umn.edu/link

(MINCAVA is the Minnesota Center Against Violence and Abuse housed in 
the School of Social Work at the U of Minnesota.  "Link" stands for 
the link between woman batterings/domestic violence and child 
maltreatment.)

There is also a conference on Children Exposed to Family Violence 
in San Diego, CA on October 21-24, 1998.  Contact for that is:
Hillary Haldane, (619) 581-1774, email: hhaldane@adnc.com

Good Luck,
Anna Hagemeister
