June 16, 2011 by Andrew Atwal
New information released by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services provides more details about the number of allegations of maltreatment of children in 2009 and how the complaints were handled.
In 2009, there were an estimated 3.3 million referrals involving alleged mistreatment of about 6 million children made to Child Protective Services (CPS) agencies in the United States. The number of referrals stayed about the same in 2009 as it was in 2008.
In addition, an estimated 3.6 million children were the subject of one or more assessments or investigations. About 62 percent of all referrals were screened in for investigation or assessment by CPS agencies. Slightly more than 76 percent of investigations or assessments found that the child was not a victim of maltreatment.
