dc.description.notesGeneral Overview:This US paper examines the qualitative differences between families living with adult domestic violence who are also involved with child protection services (CPS) and those families suffering domestic violence who are not involved with CPS.<br/ ><br/ > * Of the women involved with CPS, 34% were not the biological mother to all of their children but 75% of perpetrators in relationships involved with CPS were not the biological parent of the woman’s children<br/ >Discussion: This study was able to confirm previous studies which showed that there is a high involvement of CPS involvement among families experiencing domestic violence. As well, it found that in families where the perpetrator of domestic violence was not the biological father of the children in the home, there was a greater likelihood of those children being reported to the CPS.<br/ ><br/ > This study also shows that two-thirds of the mothers interviewed did not have any contact with CPS but were involved with domestic violence services and there was therefore a huge unmet need for services which would benefit children exposed to domestic violence.en
