dc.description.notes"It is becoming increasingly clear that<br/ >children and young people have their own<br/ >unique experiences of family violence<br/ >and that they are victims in their own<br/ >right. Children by nature of their age and<br/ >developmental needs are particularly<br/ >vulnerable to living in a household affected<br/ >by family violence. Often they are the silent<br/ >or invisible victims.<br/ >Children and young people can be affected<br/ >by family violence in a range of ways which<br/ >are often independent of their non-violent<br/ >parent, and their needs can be different<br/ >to those of adults. At times children<br/ >and young people's needs have been<br/ >overlooked or conceived as secondary<br/ >to those of adults when strategies and<br/ >responses have been put in place to<br/ >address family violence.<br/ >We need different responses and<br/ >perspectives when supporting<br/ >children and young people who<br/ >experience family violence. A child or<br/ >young person's experience of family<br/ >violence is greatly dependent on<br/ >their individual circumstances and<br/ >personal characteristics. It must also<br/ >be emphasised that children and young<br/ >people who experience family violence<br/ >can display great resilience in spite of their<br/ >adverse experiences.<br/ >Building on the positive progress already<br/ >underway in Tasmania, my Report<br/ >outlines a series of findings that strive to<br/ >further strengthen our understanding of<br/ >children and young people's needs and the<br/ >responses we as a Tasmanian community<br/ >can put in place to support them to heal.<br/ >What is clear is that for women and their<br/ >children who are victims of family violence,<br/ >ensuring their safety must be the priority."<br/ >From Foreworden
