 ViewFinder: The Children Next Door
 

 
 

Host Mailha Yang and videographer Rich Enos capture elements for an upcoming episode.

  KVIE's programming philosophy is to air and create programs that reflect the community back to itself. In doing so, our productions reflect our rich history, introduce us to the people and places in the present, and help us plan for the future.

In addition to our productions America's Heartland, California Heartland, Central Valley Chronicles, and California Connected, we are proud of the range of relevant, compelling and diverse programs that we've produced this year.

And, we're particularly proud that we earned 10 Emmy Awards in 2004, more than any other station in our market.

 

The Children Next Door

This program examines the impact of domestic violence on children. In California, one in four youngsters is directly exposed to violence as either a victim or witness, leaving them more susceptible to difficulties in school, developmental problems, aggressive behavior, and suicide attempts. The Children Next Door explores programs aimed at helping children overcome the dreadful effects of violence. California Attorney General Bill Lockyer talks about a groundbreaking program, Safe from the Start, geared toward meeting the needs of children exposed to violence. A family from Sacramento's WEAVE talks about recovering from a life of violence. Counseling and support are helping them step out of the cycle of violence. And, the story of a South Land Park family devastated by violence nine years ago is told.
