✦ Synopsis

The National Survey of Child and Adolescent Well-Being (NSCAW) is the first nationally representative study of children who have been reported to authorities as suspected victims of abuse or neglect and the public programs that protect them. This is the first book that reports the results of NSCAW, interprets the findings, and puts them into a broader policy context.
