Treatment of Offenders and Families 6

First published in 1995. This is Volume five of a series that looks at the developmental stages in addressing the complex and social problem of child abuse. The articles in this volume address the treatment of child victims and adult survivors of childhood sexual, physical, and emotional abuse and neglect. Where physical abuse is concerned treatment of victims and survivors lagged far behind the treatment of sexual abuse victims and survivors. This may be due in part to the fact that in cases of physical abuse—with its physical manifestations that heal—more attention is paid to the immediate physical safety of children than to their short- and long-term emotional needs. Thereafter, the focus of treatment tended to be on parents—in hopes of preventing further abuse—rather than on the abused children.

This is Volume VI in the Child Abuse: A Multidisciplinary Survey series. The articles in this volume address the treatment of perpetrators of physical and sexual child abuse and neglect. The articles in this volume provide many insights into the treatment of perpetrators of child maltreatment. This title discusses that, although there is still much to learn about treating offenders, many programs seek to offer hope that prevention through treatment can be effective at stopping child abuse-one perpetrator at a time.

HOSPITAL SOCIAL WORKERS, along with their colleagues in other professions, appear strangely unaware of a rare hospital phenomenon that cries dramatically for attention-evidence of unbelievably primitive transactions that take place beyond our gaze, safe from our curious questions, and thus an index of social pathology which would seem to merit more attention.

It was a mistake to try to confine the all too wide theme of the exogenous origin of character formations and neuroses within a Congress paper. Since 1962 the Wayne County Juvenile Court Clinic for Child Study has been involved in a detailed study of the problem of child abuse. Over the past several years, we have been engaged in studies and clinical work involving children from suboptimal environments. First published in 1995.
