A Comparative Analysis of Standards and State Practices: Abuse and Neglect. Volume Six of Nine.
The Task Force to Develop Standards and Goals for Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention was initiated in the Spring of 1975 by the Law Enforcement Assistance Administration (LEAA) of the U.S. Department of Justice. The efforts of this task force resulted in nine reports, each one dealing with one aspect of the Juvenile Justice System. This particular volume covers a wide range of issues related to laws governing child abuse and neglect, although it must not be regarded as a comprehensive treatment of the subject. The main focus of the discussion is on the scope of jurisdiction of the courts, especially as related to procedural safeguards, dispositions and post-dispositional processes. (Author/FC)
