Abstract

Abused and neglected children may pose exceptional challenges for early intervention providers.particularly speech-language pathologists. who are faced with large. diverse caseloads. This article focuses on practical strategies regarding reporting abuse, assessing the children effectively, and managing the bizarre behaviors they may exhibit. Many anecdotal descriptions are included. Although the article is written from the point of view of speech-language-pathologists, it may be useful for a number of professionals, including physicians, psychologists, psychotherapists, social workers, and educators.
