Since the 1993 National Research Council (NRC) report was published, numerous changes have been made to federal and state laws and policies designed to impact the incidence, reporting, and negative health and economic consequences of child abuse and neglect. This chapter reviews the foundations for the development of child abuse and neglect law and policy and describes the current environment of laws and policies related to child abuse and neglect at both the federal and state levels. Also discussed is the evaluation and analysis of these laws and policies. Related research needs are detailed as well.

(Answers may vary.)

In my state, every 75 minutes a child is abused or neglected. Thus, I am interested in laws and policies related to child abuse and neglect. Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act (CAPTA) of 1974 is a federal legislation addressing child abuse and neglect. As per the Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act, the federal government funds states for prevention, investigation, treatment, and prosecution activities related to child abuse and neglect cases. Public agencies and nonprofit organizations receive grant through CAPTA for projects and other demonstrations program. This Act funds states for improving their child protective services, however, I feel the amount of funding received should be increased. CAPTA should fully fund states. Also, the CAPTA should be amended to provide to every child a legal counsellor in the court.

Moreover, the states should spread more awareness about the program. Nonprofit organizations should conduct demonstrations, discussion sessions, and presentations in various schools to inform children about the various child protective policies available.
