Boys, Childhood Domestic Abuse and Gang Involvement: Violence at Home, Violence On-Road

Jade Levell

Boys, Childhood Domestic Abuse and Gang Involvement: Violence at Home, Violence On-Road

School for Policy Studies

Research output: Book/Report › Authored book

Abstract

Boys and young men have been previously overlooked in domestic violence and abuse policy and practice, particularly in the case of boys who are criminalised and labelled as gang-involved by the time they reach their teens.

Jade Levell offers radical and important insights into how boys in this context navigate their journey to manhood with the constant presence of violence in their lives, in addition to poverty and racial marginalisation. Of equal interest to academics and front-line practitioners, the book highlights the narratives of these young men and makes practice recommendations for supporting these ‘hidden victims’.
