This book was released on 1993 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three years after the release of its original report (1990), the U.S. Advisory Board on Child Abuse and Neglect reports that the child protection emergency has clearly deepened in all parts of the nation. Reports of child abuse and neglect have continued to climb; an inordinate number of children continue to die at the hands of caretakers; and adequate and affordable treatment for child abuse victims and their families remains exceedingly difficult to find. The collapse of the nation's child protection system has also continued. This updated report explores the continuing child welfare crisis and calls upon national leaders to respond in a meaningful way to the critical recommendations set forth during the previous 3 years. Those recommendations include enacting an explicit national child protection policy that is comprehensive, child-centered, family-focused, neighborhood-based, and which emphasizes treatment and prevention of abuse and neglect. This report consists of three sections. Section 1 provides an introduction to the volume which documents the continuing national child protection emergency, discusses the federal role in child protection, and provides an overview of the report. Section 2 describes the activities of the Board during 1991-1992, including a discussion of its response to major public policy issues, its stand on the United Nations' Convention on the Rights of the Child, and the development of a new national child protection strategy. Also included are a discussion of child maltreatment-related fatalities and a reassessment of Board positions on a variety of topics. Section 3 provides copies of document related to Board activities in the following areas: the response of the Board to major public policy issues; development of the 1993 report on a proposed new child protection strategy; and development of the 1994 report on a proposed national policy on child maltreatment related fatalities. Five appendices list: (1) members, staff, committees, and workgroups of the Board; (2) persons appearing before the Board during meetings; (3) texts of the Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act (including all amendments through the end of the 102nd Congress); (4) Report on the Accomplishments of the Initiative on Child Abuse and Neglect of the Secretary of Health and Human Services; and (5) reports by the Interagency Task Force on Child Abuse and Neglect.

Download or read book Engaging Privacy and Information Technology in a Digital Age written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2007-06-28 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Privacy is a growing concern in the United States and around the world. The spread of the Internet and the seemingly boundaryless options for collecting, saving, sharing, and comparing information trigger consumer worries. Online practices of business and government agencies may present new ways to compromise privacy, and e-commerce and technologies that make a wide range of personal information available to anyone with a Web browser only begin to hint at the possibilities for inappropriate or unwarranted intrusion into our personal lives. Engaging Privacy and Information Technology in a Digital Age presents a comprehensive and multidisciplinary examination of privacy in the information age. It explores such important concepts as how the threats to privacy evolving, how can privacy be protected and how society can balance the interests of individuals, businesses and government in ways that promote privacy reasonably and effectively? This book seeks to raise awareness of the web of connectedness among the actions one takes and the privacy policies that are enacted, and provides a variety of tools and concepts with which debates over privacy can be more fruitfully engaged. Engaging Privacy and Information Technology in a Digital Age focuses on three major components affecting notions, perceptions, and expectations of privacy: technological change, societal shifts, and circumstantial discontinuities. This book will be of special interest to anyone interested in understanding why privacy issues are often so intractable.
