Fisher2 - Dorothy L. Espelage3 Published online: 3 September 2020 C Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature 2020 Abstract Family violence and youth violence have received a significant amount of research attention over the years. A large body of research findings has substantiated a significant association between experiences in family violence, such as maltreatment and exposure to parental violence, and youth violence, such as bullying, fighting, dating violence, gang violence. In honor of the late Dr. Anna Costanza Baldry, this special issue brings together scholars from a variety of disciplines (psychology, criminal justice, social work, and health science) to explore how family violence and youth violence are interrelated. Keywords Family violence - Youth violence - Bullying - Maltreatment - Dating violence - Violence against women - In Memory of Anna Costanza Baldry (May 16, 1970 - March 9, 2019) Family or domestic (intimate partner) violence and youth violence are serious social public health matters worldwide. According to the Children's Bureau of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, there were 678,000 substantiated cases of child abuse and neglect in 2018 (U.S. Department of Health, and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families, Administration on Children, Youth and Families, Children's Bureau 2020). Domestic, or intimate-partner violence, is another form of family violence, which refers to threatening or injurious physical, psychological, verbal, or economic behavior directed toward an adult romantic partner, regardless of marital status, and including both ongoing and terminated relationships (Worden 2000).

The presence of violence in the home is an important factor to consider when examining the etiology and antecedents of youth violence and victimization. According to the World Health Organization (2015), youth violence is violence that occurs among individuals aged 10-29 years who are unrelated and who may or may not know each other, and generally takes place outside of the home. Examples of youth violence in- clude bullying, physical assault with or without a weapon, and gang violence (p. 5). Over the last several decades, em- pirical research studies have documented significant and pos- itive associations between exposure and experiences in vio- lence in the home and youth violence, such as bullying, weap- on carrying, fighting, dating violence, and gang violence (Baldry 2003; Corvo and deLara 2010; Foshee et al. 2016; Ingram et al. 2020; Leeb et al. 2007; Mejia et al. 2006; Ulloa et al. 2012).
