We continue to be horrified by reports of violent & cruel acts being meted out to children. This should not be tolerated. In the same way we have address and condemn other forms of violence, we must unequivocally, loudly & resolutely condemn violence against our children.
Physical abuse remains one of the main & overt forms of child maltreatment reported to the CPFSA National Children’s Registry (NCR). Each year, approximately 25-30% of reports received are for children who are victims of some form of physical violence.
