About the CPD course
We are holding the first international event on childhood verbal abuse (CVA) with the World Health Organisation (WHO); and University College London’s (UCL) Division of Psychology and Language Sciences on 11 April 2024. It will bring together presentations from global experts in the study of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs); neuroscience; developmental psychology; and public health to elucidate and promote discussions on unifying definitions; impact; societal cost burden; and prevention.
Help us end verbal abuse of children.
Words Matter is an ambitious new charity on a mission to improve children’s mental and physical health and development by helping end verbal abuse by the adults around them.
Working in partnership with experts, decision makers, non-profit and other organisations, we focus on three areas: research, awareness and collaboration.
We all want the children around us to have the best possible chance to thrive – to grow up healthy, to reach their potential, and follow their dreams – and to have the best start in life.
