title: [A unit dedicated to minor victims of violence].
abstract: Law 98-468 of 17th June 1998 enables hearings for minor victims of aggression or sexual assault to be filmed. This legal procedure can sometimes be traumatic. In the region of Picardie, units dedicated to underage victims have been developed. These units bring together all the relevant professionals in a reassuring environment suitable for children, in order to encourage the child to talk and to help make the whole procedure easier.
