Joel S. Milner, director of the Center for the Study of Family Violence and Sexual Assault at Northern Illinois University, will give two presentations at Cornell University Tuesday, March 16, on better identification of children who are at risk for physical abuse and have risk factors of potential offenders. A morning session is intended for child protective and mental health professionals, and an afternoon session is for faculty and students. Milner, a professor of psychology, is the author or co-author of more than 140 articles, chapters and books, primarily on topics concerning child physical abuse and family violence. His most recent research efforts have focused on the description and assessment of child physical and sexual abusers and on the testing of a social information processing model of child physical abuse. The seminars are part of the Cornell Family Life Development Center's silver anniversary.
