Abstract

Research from the CDC empirically proves that adverse childhood events (ACE) increase the likelihood of mental and physical health concerns. Many traumatic childhood events are avoidable if teachers, nurses, doctors, social workers, counsellors, lawyers, judges, and law enforcement understand the most recent domestic violence research and best practices for protecting children. Relevant domestic violence research and laws are discussed. Through changes to curriculum across disciplines, higher education could alter paradigms at the grass roots level and proactively reduce the number of traumatic events experienced by children. Suggestions are made for domestic violence topics and research to be included in courses.
