McColl's article uses a question-and-answer format to help school personnel find information to address domestic violence that affects students and the school community. School personnel will deal with domestic violence at some point in their careers, and there is a growing awareness that this type of violence has a detrimental effect on children exposed to it. Among the questions posed are \"How does domestic violence affect schools?\", \"What are Domestic Violence Protective Orders?\", and \"How does domestic violence affect a school's duty to report child abuse or neglect?\".
