Project description:
An unknown but large number of children undergo traumatic experience in connection with domestic violence in the Czech Republic. Applicant and his Norwegian and Czech partners want to create, adapt and implement a methodology for early detection of violence / abuse / neglect committed in children in close relationships and implement an individualized treatment and therapy program for children and parents that supports parental competences and good relationships.
The aim of the project is to stop violence / abuse/ neglect committed in children so that the child can grow up in a safe and pleasant environment. This will be achieved through the implementation of methods for detection of violence / abuse/ neglect committed in children in close relationships (potentially traumatized children will be identify early) in health facilities and schools, as well as by setting up and implementing an individualized treatment plan for children and parents.
After the pilot phase, the program will be transferred to at least seven other cooperating schools and kindergartens. During the implementation of the project, 300 children will be screened for identification of violence / trauma and one hundred of these children and 60 of their parents will be provided with targeted individualized therapies.
