Animal Abuse/Family Violence CLE Brochure

April 19, 2008
The George Washington University Law School
Washington, D.C.
 PDF

The link between animal abuse and human violence is real and the cycle of family abuse is complex. It is well-documented that in homes where there is abuse, there is generally animal abuse as well. In fact, the abuse often strikes the animal first. Moreover, children who are exposed to family abuse are at a greater risk of psychological and behavioral problems, often accompanied by animal abuse. The cycle of family violence must stop and the law can help. There are various ways that the law and society can improve the current situation to help the victims of family abuse. This program will examine the link between animal abuse and human violence within the family. The speakers will address the definitions of family abuse, the cycle of violence, the laws combating family abuse and tools to reform the system to better combat family abuse.
