The Nick News With Linda Ellerbee special FAMILY SECRETS: WHEN VIOLENCE HITS HOME is an Emmy-nominated children’s program that chronicles the stories of children who grew up living with domestic violence and how they were able to begin to overcome the impact of their experience.

It first aired in August 2013. This program was the first television program to speak on the issue of CDV to a young audience. In 2014, FAMILY SECRETS: WHEN VIOLENCE HITS HOME was honored with an Emmy nomination for “Outstanding Children’s Program.” |
