Earlier this week, 275 professionals who deal with abused children, including police officers, prosecutors, doctors and victims advocates met in Charleston for the 17th. annual West Virginia Crimes Against Children Conference. They all met with one goal in mind...to better address the investigation, treatment and resolution of child abuse cases without further trauma to the child. Experts who spoke at the conference focused on what professionals need to look for when detecting and handling cases of abuse and neglect and how to prepare kids for one of the most frightening events of their young lives.
