Federal Legislation
The Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act (CAPTA) is a federal law that supports individual state programs across the U.S. that focus on prevention and identification of child abuse through preventive and public awareness programs that are community based. The goal of this federal law is to help provide comprehensive care to the actual victims, or potential victims, of child abuse. It helps to integrate the services provided by a wide-variety of agencies; including educational, legal, mental health, and social service organizations.
