Stopping Child Maltreatment Before it Starts

"Beginning with a discussion of the nature and etiology of physical child abuse and neglect, Guterman examines the mechanisms by which child protective and early home visitation services have traditionally operated. The book explores best practice principles by providing a detailed "inside tour" of those practices that have been empirically linked with positive outcomes in serviced families. Guterman also discusses in detail ways that home visitation may more adequately address the problem of family substance abuse in reducing child maltreatment risk."--Jacket.
