DESCRIPTION:&nbsp\;IPV refers to multiple forms of harm caused by a current
  or former intimate partner or spouse. It affects millions of people of al
 l genders\, ages\, socioeconomic\, racial\, educational\, ethnic\, religio
 us and cultural backgrounds. However\, women account for the vast majority
  of people who experience this form of violence (Burczycka 2019).&nbsp\; F
 urthermore\, there are serious impacts on children who are exposed to viol
 ence at home. Many children exposed to violence could be physically harmed
  while trying to intervene in the conflict.&nbsp\; Children who witness vi
 olence at home are at higher risk of experiencing physical or mental healt
 h issues and may be at greater risk of being abused or become violent in t
 heir future relationships.&nbsp\;Peel CAS has developed an IPV Strategy to
  better support families experiencing violence. Key elements of the strate
 gy include building capacity across the agency\; enhancing services to sup
 port survivors\; engaging fathers who have perpetrated violence\; and supp
 orting the&nbsp\;expansion of the Safe Centre of Peel.&nbsp\;Our team work
 s hard to ensure that all family members are well connected with appropria
 te community resources that will help them break the cycle of violence.&nb
