It is divided into three sections, with Section One dealing with issues related to wife battering in the military. Section Two includes readings pertaining to child abuse in the military.

Book excerpt: Child maltreatment in the United States has provoked considerable interest in recent years. Child abuse and neglect are prevalent in all parts of American society. Although children of military personnel experience maltreatment, little research has been completed which compares child abuse rates in the military with those for civilian populations. Studies that have assessed child abuse in the armed forces have been based on official reports recorded in military Family Advocacy central registries. Because a standardized method for recording child abuse does not exist, conclusions regarding the prevalence of abuse are often inaccurate. We explore this and other methodological constraints such as differences in definitions, data collection procedures, and utilization of records, which make estimating child abuse accurately in both military and civilian populations difficult. A review of the literature on child maltreatment in the services also reveals that there are many correlates of child abuse unique to the military family. Finally, we discuss both the risk and protective factors within military life that may influence the occurrence of child maltreatment.

Download or read book United States Air Force Response to Problems of Child Abuse Within the Military Community written by H. L Banks (Jr) and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page 71 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act became national law in the United States. This act authorized a National Center on Child Abuse and Neglect to compile information, operate a clearinghouse on programs showing promise of success in prevention, identification and treatment of child abuse, publish training materials, provide technical assistance to public and non-profit agencies, conduct research into the causes of abuse, and study changes in incidence. The Air Force (AF) published Air Force Regulation (AFR) 160-38, Child Advocacy Program, which established a committee at each Air Force base to investigate and evaluate suspected child abuse cases. This study focuses on child abuse in the Air Force community rather than in the military community as a whole. With the reported cases of child abuse and neglect in the Air Force rising every year, it does not seem possible that so many cases go unreported. However, in 1984, the National Center on Child Abuse and Neglect reported that eight per 1000 children had been abused nationwide, while the rate for the entire United States military was only 4.6 per 1000 (as reported earlier, the Air Force rate was 2.6 per 1000). A staff member at the Military Family Resource Center, feels that many cases off-base and in officer households are not reported. This relates to the fact that off-base occurrences are not being reported to base officials.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because of concern that spouses and children of military personnel may not have the same level of confidentiality as they would in the civilian community, Congress directed us to review the confidentiality of military dependent communications in family abuse cases. Section 585 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2000 (PL. 105-65, Oct. 5, 1999), required us to examine the policies, procedures, and practices of the military departments for protecting the confidentiality of communications between military dependents and counselors, therapists, and other service providers regarding family abuse. To respond to this mandate, we determined (1) the extent of reported spousal and child abuse within the military, (2) the degree to which dependent conversations about family abuse are subject to disclosure, and (3) the nature of Department of Defense (DOD) efforts to address the confidentiality of dependent communications. The DOD Family Advocacy Program defines spousal abuse as assaults, threats, and other acts of force or violence and as emotional and financial maltreatment, including any actions that harm or limit the spouse's freedom of choice. Child abuse includes physical or emotional injury; sexual maltreatment; and neglect by parents, guardians, or other persons responsible for providing care. Each of the military services has established a Family Advocacy Program to provide family counseling and to help ensure the safety of alleged spousal and child abuse victims.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study is to understand the recently documented increase in rates of child maltreatment and neglect in the US Army. The project employs a three prong research methodology (using clinical chart reviews, survey methodology of key informants, and demographic community analyses) to: 1) facilitate understanding of the phenomenology of Army child neglect, 2) identify child, parent, and family risk and protective factors that contribute to neglect, 3) identify military community contributions to neglect, including deployment, and 4) identify surrounding community factors that may also contribute risk or protection to child neglect behaviors. Key accomplishments for Year 1 of the study include: IRB/Human Subject approval submission; identification of 30 criteria appropriate Army sites and communities surrounding these sites for inclusion in the study; development of the key informant survey and clinical record review template; contact with clinical record review site managers to coordinate their IRB processes; development of database structure, and the hiring of specified personnel. Under current development, is the strategy for creating a contact list of key informants at each installation (e.g., addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, etc.) for upcoming survey administration.
