Child Abuse Reporting: Clergy Perceptions.
Grossoehme, Daniel H.
Child Abuse & Neglect: The International Journal, v22 n7 p743-47 Jul 1998
A survey of 143 clergy found 29% had no education about child abuse and neglect and that 22% believe that evidence, rather than the suspicion of abuse, is required before a report is made. The need for increased efforts to educate clergy about child abuse and neglect is discussed. (CR)
