  • Definition: Children refers to children exposed to violence. The exposure can be a direct or indirect exposure to violence in the home, school, or community—including being victims of abuse or neglect. Indirect exposure to violence means witnessing or hearing about violence directed toward others. Reporting period is the specific timeframe covered by this report. Expected minimum duration refers to the minimum number of days (or sessions) that a juvenile offender is expected to participate in the program. The minimum number or days (or sessions) is defined by the grant recipient when responding to program profile questions during the first reporting period or during the grant application process. Resilience refers to a key outcome of trauma-informed care for children by focusing on strengths and safety, leading to improved self-regulation, healthier relationships, and reduced behavioral issues. Examples of resiliency include enhanced emotional coping skills; increased feelings of safety and stability; better academic or social functioning; and developed self-efficacy, helping children navigate adversity.
