A
State Call To Action
Working to End Child Abuse and Neglect in Massachusetts
In
its continuing effort to reform the state's child protection
system, MCC released the 200-page State Call To Action:
Working to End Child Abuse and Neglect in Massachusetts
in April 2001.
The effort follows the lead of over 30 national organizations
that have joined recently in a National Call To Action
to push for federal policies aimed at ending child maltreatment
in the United States.
The
Call to Action details a three-point strategy of
"Protecting, Preventing, and Healing" to improve
state child protection systems; expand local family support
and child abuse prevention efforts; and heal child victims
through effective interventions and treatment.
