Re: Guidelines for observing family contact visits

["Gayle Zeller" <gzeller@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Parent-Child Interaction Therapy is often used as an intervention during
reunification cases with CPS, at least in Washington and California--are
other states using this?  This is only with cases not involving sexual
abuse, however--only physical abuse, neglect, etc...

Rob--were you looking for things directly related to sexual abuse cases?
Ben Saunders might be a great resource for reunification within family
sexual abuse cases.  Cheers to all,
