The Lecture will be led by Dr. Harriet MacMillan with guest discussants, Anna-Marie Pietrantonio and Darina Vasek.

Violence in the home is one of the most important risk factors for physical and mental health problems in young people. Often it is unrecognized by parents and other family members. The presenter and panellists will discuss how children experience violence in the home, the effects of violence and ways to help children and families through prevention and treatment.
