Jeffrey L. Edleson, professor, School of Social Work, and Sudha Shetty, director Hubert H. Humphrey International Fellowship Programs, will discuss a recently completed study about battered mothers who sought safety in the U.S. The study, funded by the National Institute of Justice, found that these women face court proceedings under The Hague Convention that frequently result in the return of their children to their abusive partners.

The presentation is Wednesday, October 20, noon-1 p.m., Peters Hall
