The Link Between Animal Abuse, Child Abuse, Elder Abuse, and Domestic Violence (October 16, 2019)
$175.00
Jeffrey Dahmer, Albert DeSalvo (the Boston Strangler), Ted Bundy and David Berkowitz (the “Son of Sam”) had many things in common; but, the most troubling was the fact that each one of them admitted to the mutilation, torturing and the killing of animals in their youth. Studies conducted have shown that victims of child abuse and domestic violence have had some exposure to animal abuse. Recognizing these early signs of abuse in youth or adults can help identify bigger problems and issues, as well as, shed light to behavior and get the child/adult proper care and treatment.
Course includes training on:
- The history of “The Link.”
- Theory on why abusers batter and hurt animals.
- Interviewing techniques with victims of abuse and violence to determine if there is also some animal abuse occurring.
- Recognizing the signs of child maltreatment.
- Recognizing the signs of animal abuse.

- Steps for prevention and Intervention.
- Current programs addressing “The Link.”
