Abstract

Are children in therapy more likely to have a more extensive history of victimization than other children? What are some of the key forms of violence that are most common among children referred to therapy? Are there other adversities that therapists should know are particularly elevated for youth in treatment? This White Paper will address these questions using data from the Second National Survey of Children's Exposure to Violence (NatSCEV II).
