Mental Health Issues of Child Maltreatment

With the publication date for Mental Health Issues of Child Maltreatment: Contemporary Strategies just around the bend, we here at STM Learning want to share more about what makes this two-volume workbook set a critical resource.

Overview

Child Maltreatment is a global public health issue that affects children and families of all backgrounds. Preventing, addressing, and treating maltreatment and its consequences takes the effort of professionals across multiple fields. In our forthcoming title, our authors take a trauma-informed, interdisciplinary approach. This extends to presenting the research, interventions, and presentations of child maltreatment as it applies across demographics.

What This Book Entails

As outlined by the authors, the intention of this book is to:

• Define the problem of child maltreatment, both as a concept and statistically, to establish the current state of the problem using the most up-to-date information.
• Identify the causes and risk factors associated with child maltreatment that affect both susceptibility and the presence of obstacles to receiving adequate support and care in response.
• Outline and provide trauma-informed, appropriate interventions for both children and caregivers.
• Emphasize the research and information available in regard to these interventions, in order to educate professionals on the evidence and effectiveness of their use.
• Educate both students and professionals in the fields of psychology, medicine, nursing, social work, and creative art therapies in order to provide for future generations.
