Preliminary findings from report on Child and Adolescent to Parent Violence and Abuse (CAPVA)

For Child to Parent Abuse (CPA) Awareness Day, we are sharing preliminary key themes and recommendations from our upcoming report, "Nowhere to Turn: Lessons from Families Affected by Child and Adolescent to Parent Violence and Abuse (CAPVA)". The full report will provide an analysis of the responses from our recent survey, answered by families and parents who have experienced CAPVA.  

These early findings shed light on the experiences of families dealing with CAPVA and point to early recommendations for change. Families have spoken about the challenges they face, which highlight the need for better guidance, funding, and training for practitioners and agencies.
