About the Book

"Mandated reporting duties are extremely important to the life, safety, and welfare of victims who cannot independently access the system. It's sometimes the only method by which a victim gets help."
-Judge Pamela L. Iles, from a recent speech

"This manual is the gold standard in understanding child abuse dynamics and reporting responsibilities. The authors have an incredible breadth of knowledge of this subject I wholeheartedly recommend this manual to anyone in the 'helping professions.'"
-Dr. Jill Murray, author of But I Love Him-Protecting Your Teen Daughter from Controlling, Abusive Relationships and Destructive Relationships-Changing the Unhealthy Relationships in Your Life

"As a professional in the world of abuse recovery, I highly recommend this book. Each of us needs an easy-to-access, easy-to-find, and easy-to-use resource guide at our fingertips. This is a great tool for training and managing those who work with children to young adults."
-Dr. Tracy Kemble, The WIN Restoration Center
