Children who are victims of child abuse and/or neglect are often too frightened or unable to ask for help or obtain the protection they need. They depend on caring individuals who recognize the signs of maltreatment and make reports on their behalf to appropriate authorities. The NYSPCC Professional's Handbook on Identifying and Reporting Child Abuse and Neglect provides a thorough overview of the physical, emotional and behavioral indicators of abuse and neglect and summarizes professional's responsibilities as mandated reporters. The handbook serves as the text for the NYSPCC Correspondence Course on Identifying Child Abuse and Neglect.

Cost: $14.00 (includes shipping and handling.)
