Mandated reporting duties are extremely important to the life safety and welfare of victims who cannot indepently access the system. Its sometimes the only method by which a victim gets help. -Judge Pamela L. Iles from a recent speech This manual is the gold standard in understanding child abuse dynamics and reporting responsibilities. The authors have an incredible breadth of knowledge of this subject . . . I wholeheartedly recommend this manual to anyone in the helping professions. -Dr. Jill Murray author of But I Love Him--Protecting Your Teen Daughter from Controlling Abusive Relationships and Destructive Relationships--Changing the Unhealthy Relationships in Your Life.
