dc.descriptionThis paper primarily summarizes prior research studies in the area of child abuse and maltreatment, many of which have demonstrated a powerful link between abuse as a child and harmful consequences in later life. In addition, attention is given to the cost borne by New York State citizens to treat these consequences, some of which could be prevented by a greater investment of resources used to prevent child abuse.
