| dc.description | Since the passage of the first Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act (CAPTA) in 1974, American society has recognized the need to battle child maltreatment. Child maltreatment is defined by federal law as any recent act or failure to act on the part of a parent or caretaker, which results in death, serious physical or emotional harm, sexual abuse or exploitation, or an act or failure to act which presents an imminent risk of serious harm . 1 Child maltreatment can also include harm that a caregiver allows to happen (or does not prevent from happening) to a child. There are four major types of child maltreatment: physical abuse, sexual abuse, neglect, and emotional abuse. The term child abuse and neglect commonly seen in the literature generally refers to one or more of the above four types of child maltreatment. | |
