2019 | Child Risk Factors

“There has been an important shift in the conversation around child abuse and neglect fatalities in recent years. Previously, our systems were designed to respond only after a tragedy occurred. Today, however, with the support of new public policy and greater knowledge, we are beginning to think and act in terms of preventing child abuse tragedies before they occur.” – Theresa Covington, The Chronicle of Social Change (22 Nov. 2019).
