Helping Young Children to Understand Domestic Abuse and Coercive Control;A Professional Guide

This guidebook is designed to support professionals with the effective use of the storybook, Luna Little Legs, which has been created to help preschool-aged children understand about domestic abuse and coercive control.
Sensitively and accessibly written, the guidebook presents the adult with comprehensive information regarding domestic abuse and coercive control, and its impact on young children, putting them in a position to have important and informed interactions with the young children in their care. These conversations help children to make sense of their experiences of domestic abuse, giving them the opportunity to vocalise their feelings and to understand what to do when something feels not right.
