abstract="This article discusses findings from the Safe Start Demonstration Project presented in this special issue with comments from two experts in the field of family violence. The overall findings from the Safe Start Demonstration Project, as well as the findings discussed in each article, are summarized. The discussants were asked to address eight key topics that emerged: (1) infrastructure for a system of care for children exposed to violence, (2) the need for either a continuum of services or multiple entry points to the system of care, (3) the role of law enforcement, (4) crisis intervention, (5) data collection challenges, (6) measurement tools, (7) sustaining the infrastructure for a system of care, and (8) areas of interest for future practice and research. The findings from this special issue and comments by the two experts demonstrate the need for continued work in practice and research in the field of children's exposure to violence.<p />",
