PESTEL Analysis: Exposure Is Harm: Evidence Briefings for Family Court and Child Welfare
A library of plain-language, citation-backed one-pagers that give family-court judges, CASA volunteers, and caseworkers the evidence that witnessing inter-parental violence is direct biological harm to a developing child — for use in custody, visitation, and removal decisions.
The PESTEL analysis reveals a strong alignment with current trauma-informed care trends and a critical gap in judicial knowledge, though it faces significant hurdles in the slow-moving, conservative nature of legal systems. The idea's success depends on bridging the gap between biological research and courtroom admissibility standards.
