NYSPCC Professionals' Handbook
Identifying and Reporting Child Abuse and Neglect
Edited by Marlene Charnizon, C.S.W.
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.
