Abstract
“The Enhanced Resource Guidelines will serve as the NCJFCJ’s blueprint for training on child abuse and neglect practices, and is monumental in shaping the way courts handle cases to best serve the children and families involved in the court system,” said Melissa Gueller, NCJFCJ program director for child abuse and neglect.
The Enhanced Resource Guidelines covers all stages of the court process, from the preliminary protective hearing until juvenile and family court involvement has ended, which leads to the child safely being returned home or placed in a new, secure and legally permanent home.
