You might explore the resources at the Center for Victims of Torture at the
University of Minnesota at www.cvt.org. They have a resource page on working
with youth which I think might address issues of being both a victim of and
participating in violence. I believe Ann Masten at the University of
Minnesota and Jon Hubbard of the CVT may have done some research in this
area as well. 

Good luck.

Dear Colleagues.
I am looking for on-line resources & publications, suggestions of print
materials, and even good contacts and anecdotal information to share with a
colleague who works with children in Uganda who have escaped from their
abduction into the Lords Resistance Army, where many of them were forced to
commit atrocities, as well as suffering as victims themselves. She is
returning to Uganda in just a few days and I'd like to obtain and print out
as much as I can for her before she returns.

>From U.S. gangs to the Khmer Rouge to the paramilitary in El Salvador,
people have been forced to commit atrocities. Can anyone recommend materials
on this topic? Surely the healing processes must be somewhat different than
those for people who been victimized only.

Thanks for your assistance. Feel free to write me off-list at
LFontes@rcn.com if you prefer.
Thank you!
