<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>You raise an interesting issue.</FONT> <FONT
face=Arial size=2> Here in Israel, suspected cases are reported to either the
police or a child protection worker who then reports to the police. A
special child investigator questions the child - this investigator is a social
worker who works under the auspices of the police and s/he cannot be called in
unless a report is filed with the police. There are several problems with this
and I would not recommend it. I am willing to expand on this if anyone is
interested.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Since you raise the subject, I was wondering if
anyone can forward me copies of your mandated reporting laws regarding sexual
abuse. Are there differences between sexual abuse and other kinds of
abuse? I am doing a comparative study. </FONT></DIV>

An evaluation of this process is being conducted by Richard Gelles and his colleagues at the University of Pennsylvania and is funded by the National Institute of Justice. A final report currently is out for review. A short description of the evaluation at the time it was funded can be found at

Colleagues,
Does anyone have a reference to a description or an evaluation of the move
in some Florida counties to move their CPS investigative functions to law
enforcement. Any help you can provide would be most helpful.
Thanks,
