The Corner of Intimate Partner Violence and Child Welfare

Center for NYC Affairs

The panel is made up of survivors of domestic/intimate partner violence and child witnesses who will provide their perspective on being a survivor and the response by the Administration of Children's Services (ACS) to their domestic violence experience. Panelists will give recommendations on how child welfare officials can better respond to and assist survivors and their children.
