What next after the rescue?

CHILD abuse is often committed by family members or people entrusted with caring for the child. This makes the recovery process a complicated one, especially after the child has been rescued by welfare officers and taken away from home.

To give our readers a notion about the rehabilitation of an abused child, The Star New Media is bringing together child protectors and social workers for a forum tomorrow (June 1).

Issues to be discussed include measures to be taken in the rehabilitation process between the victim and the perpetrator, and what the community can do to help.

If you wish to know more about preventing child abuse, join us at the forum at Studio V, 1Utama Shopping Mall, beginning 2pm.
