Courtney's mum was murdered in a domestic violence homicide. She's one of at least 1,000 kids who've lost parents this way, according to research from Melbourne University.

And we’ve just heard about the impacts of growing up in a violent home, but what services are out there to help young people? This school on the New South Wales Central Coast is doing things a bit differently...

Guests:

  • Professor Kathryn Joy, domestic violence homicide researcher, University of Melbourne
  • Dr Ben Herscovitch, research fellow, ANU
