Children Exposed to Violence Classroom Training

Children Exposed to Violence Classroom Training

The IACP and Yale, in partnership with OJJDP, developed a classroom course to prepare frontline law enforcement officers to identify and respond effectively to children exposed to violence using both developmentally-appropriate and trauma-informed approaches. Participants learn principles and strategies for on-scene/acute responses; death notification to children; and responding to the needs of children at scenes of domestic violence. Topics include: 

  • Differentiating between violence and trauma
  • Impact of trauma on children
  • Enhancing professional effectiveness
  • Developmentally-appropriate responses
  • Trauma-informed protocols
  • Collaborating effectively with multi-disciplinary partners.

This two-day in-person training may be available as fee for service. 


In 2019 the IACP and Yale, in partnership with OJJDP plans to launch a free online training based on the popular classroom series for law enforcement.
