                                                                CHILD ABUSE - NEGLECT OR SUSPICIONS

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Anyone who witnesses abusive behavior towards a child can and should report it! Keep in mind, child abuse takes many forms including physical, emotional, verbal, sexual, neglect, exploitation, Shaken Baby Syndrome, bullying, and more. The shocking truth is that neglect is the number one form of child abuse in America. More children die from neglect every year than from any other form of maltreatment. Child abuse is not just a family problem. It’s a social health issue. Child abuse is everyone’s business.
