TY - JOUR PY - 2003// TI - Collecting data on the abuse and neglect of American Indian children JO - Child welfare A1 - Fox, Kathleen A. SP - 707 EP - 726 VL - 82 IS - 6 N2 - A survey of 10% of federally recognized American Indian tribes and the states in which they are located indicates national data systems receive reports of approximately 61% of data on the abuse or neglect of American Indian children, 42% by states and 19% by counties. The author recommends that American Indians develop culturally sound definitions of abuse and neglect and that the government provide the resources and assistance necessary to develop data tracking and reporting systems on the abuse and neglect of American Indian children.
