Clinical psychologist Daniel J. Flannery reveals the impact of violence and victimization in the lives of children and adolescents from a developmental perspective. He explores how young people experience violence in their everyday lives and how this impacts their mental health and ability to cope with challenges and crises. His case studies show the significance of these mental health issues for the individual, family, neighborhood, and community. He offers lists of professional resources, including web sites and readings related to violence and mental health. This book will be a valuable resource for parents, teachers, social workers, childcare workers, public health officials, police officers and others who interact every day with young people, to help them understand more about child development and how experiences with violence can affect development and daily life.
Daniel J. Flannery is Professor & Director of the Institute for the Study and Prevention of Violence at Kent State University, Ohio. His research expertise includes a focus on risk and protective factors in delinquency and violence prevention, as well as investigations of how parent-child and parent-adolescent relationships impact early adolescent problem behavior.
