Scope of Adolescent Abuse

Scope of Adolescent Abuse

• One piece of research showed that 76% of abuse in younger kids was reported to child protective services compared to 39% in adolescents
• Abused adolescents may be more likely to go to runaway centers or alternative youth services rather than official child protective services (they don’t feel like a child)
