Experiences of adolescent to parent violence in the COVID-19 pandemic is a fast evidence report base on experiences of child and adolescent to parent violence through first-hand accounts from parents and the views of experts and practitioners working directly with families during the first months of the Covid-19 lockdown in the UK (April – June 2020).

The report considers:

  1. what the impact of the pandemic and government restrictions has been on families and on the violence and abuse,
  2. what support has been available to families during this time,
  3. what measures might be put in place to protect families and address their needs, both during government restrictions and when those restrictions are eased.
