The purpose of this study was to provide support groups that promote healthy coping skills for children who have been exposed to domestic violence (DV). Children exposed to domestic violence (CEDV) may be at risk to experience internalizing and externalizing behavioral problems. An extensive literature review was conducted on the family outcomes related to DV exposure in children and treatment interventions that have been shown to be helpful for this vulnerable population. Support groups have shown to aid children in processing their experiences. A search was conducted to allocate appropriate funding for CEDV. The actual submission and funding of this grant was not a requirement for the successful completion of the project.
