| contents | Tough Times: Community Coordination and Development in Child Protective Services in a Rurban Area. Deaton, Bob Morgan, Dan Agency Cooperation Child Abuse Child Neglect Community Coordination Community Planning Community Programs Community Services Family Problems Libraries Publicity Resource Materials Rural Development Social Support Groups The origins and development of the Missoula Council for Child Protection and Family Support are traced during its first 9 months as a community group focusing upon projects and issues to alleviate child abuse and neglect. The approach used is described as a mixture of rural community development and planning. Among projects listed as completed thus far are: public service announcements (television announcements, radio script, posters, and a toll-free number for specific details); resource library; Parents Anonymous (a local P.A. chapter was formed and a state coordinator selected through the Council's efforts); child sexual abuse dolls kit (two sets of anatomically correct dolls were purchased for treatment and diagnosis of young victims); and a community-wide survey of services to children and families was completed. This survey elicited information about the range of services, unmet needs, and priorities for services; 53 different programs for families and children were identified. Council priorities for planning and action resulting from the survey are listed as community education, education in the schools, self-help groups, developing new programs, and continued inter-agency coordination. The Council's major problem is seen as the limited amount of time and energy available to do needed projects, fund-raising, and organizational activities. (BRR) |
