dc.description.abstractNew national data for 2021 show mixed trends for child maltreatment compared to 2020. Physical abuse declined 7% and neglect declined 4%. At the same time sexual abuse rose 4%. Child maltreatment fatalities increased less than 1%. Given disruptions to social life and investigative behavior due to COVID19, all interpretations of recent trends should be made very cautiously.en_US
