Neglect : a collection of background papers

Neglect : a collection of background papers - [Wellington] Children, Young Persons and their Families Agency 1999 - 22 p.

This report combines six different papers that discuss the effects of neglect. A wide range of topics are covered, including developmental delay, attachment issues, and poverty and child neglect. The report briefing is supplementary to a base paper, "CYPFA Neglect Prevention Programme Strategy 1999-2001" (1999), prepared for a 3-year campaign by Children, Young Persons and Their Families Agency aimed at mitigating neglect. It calls for an inter-disciplinary dialogue on neglect, saying that only with a combination of approaches can the nature of neglect be understood and combated. The papers are called: "Developmental Delay", "Neglect and Brain Development", "Attachment", "Failure to Thrive", "Resilience or Protective Factors", and "Poverty and Child Neglect".
