This educational resource provides the identifiers that every adult needs to know in order to intervene in neglectful situations, while also teaching them how to create a safe, nurturing, and protective environment for young children. From defining the different types and levels of severity of neglect to establishing suspicion and reporting neglectful situations, this book is filled with helpful information from expert psychologists and educators in the field today. Each chapter includes a brief quiz to assess chapter learning and a “Notes from the Field” section that represent real-life stories the authors have encountered in their work. There are appendices which include reproducible handouts, sample statements for parent handbooks, self-assessments for teachers, and important contact information to use when reporting neglect.
