2002 HSAC Forum <br />^ Integrate education about abuse in life-skills classes in school. For <br />example, conflict resolution, date abuse, good parenting skills, etc. <br />^ Provide classes on healthy relationships and conflict/anger management <br />in schools. <br />^ Improve police department training about domestic violence so <br />prosecution can occur without the victim's cooperation. <br />3. DIRECT SERVICE <br />^ Provide parental support groups that are consistently available for <br />parents that address teen issues. <br />^ Institute a multidisciplinary team for in-home evaluation and home <br />service division for the elderly. <br />^ Enhance elderly community watch. <br />^ Provide local rehabilitation resources for abusers and families, including <br />follow-up. <br />4. SYSTEM INTEGRATION AND COMMUNICATION <br />^ Commit to interagency communication and mechanisms for free exchange <br />of information (e.g. common intake and release forms, including list of <br />involved services). <br />^ Provide consistent funds for system support. <br />^ Involve youth in community decisions that impact youth, i.e. new program <br />planning. <br />The HSAC would like to thank session facilitators Lois Kinzie, Mel Hurston, <br />Cheryl Atwater, and David Thompson; recorders Rebecca Young, Robin <br />Barnhill, Louise Echols, and Rosetta Wash; and panelists Joyce Moore, Darrell <br />Renfroe, Margaret Hudson, Hudson Fuller, and Melissa Radcliff. <br />11 <br />8 <br />
