Russel, Robin – Child Welfare, 1988
Examines results of a four-county Indiana survey in which approximately 90% of attorneys and public agency caseworkers involved in court actions on child abuse cases revealed considerable conflict over each other's role. Suggests ways to clarify roles and ameliorate similar problems in other localities. (RWB)
