Who is at risk, and what is happening to children being removed from their families into out-of-home care? What assistance is available to vulnerable families experiencing abuse and neglect? Two chapters: Understanding child abuse and neglect; Child protection. Also includes: Worksheets and activities; Fast facts; Glossary; Web links; Index."
