Notes:	"This report details research undertaken in the Australian state of Tasmania, where police attended over 2000 family and domestic violence incidents between July 2014 and May 2015, and over 1,200 children were present at these incidents. These figures only reflect incidents attended by police and so the actual number of incidents is likely to be much higher. * The consequences of childhood exposure to family and domestic violence are known to be cumulative and intergenerational, and even prenatal exposure can potentially have lifelong implications. The risks for children include behavioural disorders, poorer verbal abilities, higher levels of anxiety, increased risk of harmful substance use and a higher risk of premature death. * Data and insights arising from the literature review and World Café events were analysed by the research team and form the basis of 35 recommendations that appear in Chapters 5 and 6 of this report (and are also listed in the following section, for convenience). These recommendations relate to Awareness Raising, Program Content and Delivery, Resourcing, and Ongoing Research. Excerpt from Executive Summary
