Towards An Integrative Approach to Child Abuse.

Harris, Oliver C.

Urban and Social Change Review, v15 n1 p3-7 Win 1982

Understanding and treatment of child abuse must not rest solely on medical intervention strategies concerned primarily with changing abusive parents. The fact that social and environmental conditions influence human behavior should not be overlooked. Family treatment in child abuse cases offers a viable alternative to the medical model of intervention. (Author/MJL)
