Workshop Description

Reports of suspected child neglect make up more than three-quarters of all reports made to child protective services in any given year; 6 times more than reports of sexual abuse, and 5 times more than reports of physical abuse. However, neglect reports are least likely to be substantiated after investigation. The reality is that reporters of suspected child maltreatment struggle with appropriately identifying and reporting this type of maltreatment. This session will explore the legal and ethical obligations of professional reporters, especially as they relate to the concept of child neglect. Various types of child neglect, including physical neglect, medical neglect and educational neglect will be explored, along with a significant conversation around parental supervision and the use of corporal punishment. 

 

Learning Objectives

After the completion of this webinar, participants will be able to:

  • Define child neglect.
  • Explain differences between different types of child neglect.
  • Understand considerations for determining when making a report to child protective services is required by law.
  • Identify the ethical/ moral and legal conundrums implicated in evaluating cases for child neglect.
  • Apply a framework to guide their process for deciding whether to make a report of child neglect.

This workshop is approved for 2.0 continuing education credit hours.
