Abstract
Description
This Report Card presents a survey of whether and how each state s laws mandate effective legal representation for maltreated children. Our survey and grades reflect state statutes or statewide rules. Where available, other information about a state s practices (which may deviate from the laws) is provided in sidebar notes, but this information does not impact a state s overall grade.
