Across the nation, there is a growing recognition that law enforcement agencies must play a crucial role in protecting abused and neglected children. Developed through a consensus-building process involving a nationwide group of law enforcement and child protective experts, the authors describes law enforcement agencies--in cooperation with child protective services--can channel their efforts within community-wide child protective efforts.
This book discusses signs of and reasons behind child abuse, as well as the welfare system and social and individual responsibility.
Douglas J. Beshavor is the Joseph J. and Violet Jacobs Scholar at AEI.
