SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    CECANF was established to develop a national strategy and 
recommendations for reducing fatalities resulting from child abuse and 
neglect.

Agenda

    On January 12, 2015 Commission members will meet to discuss their 
understanding of the issues of defining and counting child abuse and 
neglect fatalities and recommendations for addressing them, including: 
(1) What is the scope of child abuse and neglect fatalities? (2) What 
are the purposes of counting child abuse and neglect fatalities? (3) 
What data on child abuse and neglect fatalities are currently 
collected? (4) What are the limitations of our current data collection 
efforts? (5) What strategies could be implemented to improve the 
counting of child abuse and neglect fatalities? (6) Do definitions of 
child abuse and neglect fatalities need to be standardized? Commission
