Berkshire County Kids'
Place and Violence
Prevention Center, Inc.
provides an
interdisciplinary,
cooperative team
approach to address the
needs of children
subjected to violence as
victims or as witnesses
and to their
non-offending family
members. The center
provides a safe, caring,
home-like atmosphere
that coordinated the
combined knowledge of
law enforcement, social
service, medical,
prosecutorial, and
mental health agencies
to ensure an effective
response to childhood
trauma.
Children who are victims
of abuse must depend on
the adults in their
lives to pay attention
to the warning signs,
believe them when they
tell us something is
wrong, and respond
responsibly.
Kids' Place is here to
help you recognize those
signs and help your
child make a comeback
from the trauma they
have been witnessed. We
are also here to help
the non-offending parent
or family members,
handle the trauma. By
helping you, you can
help your child. |
