ESCAPE Project Performance Report for the 1984-85 and 1985-86 Periods.
Larson, Oscar W., III
This report summarizes accomplishments of the ESCAPE (Eastern Stream Child Abuse Prevention and Education) Project over its final two years and identifies products developed under its auspices during this period. An introduction describes the project which was initiated in 1982 to establish and reduce the incidence of child maltreatment in the migrant population and operated through state and local education agencies in cooperation with health, legal services and law enforcement, job training and safety, child protection, human services, farmworker, family, and minority advocacy agencies. Project activities in research, training, technical assistance, preparing resource materials for educator and health personnel, and coordination of public and private efforts are summarized in separate sections. The bulk of the report consists of a series of eight attachments. They include texts of studies of incidence and patterns of migrant child maltreatment in Florida, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Texas, as well as selected segments of state migrant child abuse prevention plans for California, Florida, Illinois, Maryland, New Jersey, and Washington. Also included are materials developed for the National Migrant Child Abuse Prevention Institute and introductory pages of "What's a Kid to Do about Child Abuse?" and "What's a Teacher to Do? Child Abuse Education for the Classroom." (NEC)
