This edition of Healing Hands presents an overview of one of the most pressing issues confronting homeless families and clinicians that serve them — the effects of domestic violence, abuse and neglect on young children. The following articles discuss conditions under which clinical interventions are warranted and report strategies used by HCH practitioners to prevent the intergenerational cycle of trauma and homelessness from recurring. Two workshops offered at the National HCH Conference on May 30, described on page 6, will explore these issues in more detail.
