PROBLEM AND CAUSES

address and describe in detail the causes of that problem.Please cite sources of information.
Alliance For Children uses a coordinated, multi-disciplinary teamed approach to child abuse
investigations that allows us to lessen the trauma to child abuse victims and provide timely,
supportive services to children and their protective caregivers. In this collaborative approach,
Alliance For Children is helping increase the safety of not only youth,but all residents of the
City of Fort Worth as it relates to the serious impact of child abuse in the community. Some
contributors to the causes of child abuse include:
• Youth serving organizations not having adequate policies regarding child protection
such as not limiting one-on-one adult to child interactions, which can increase the
likelihood of a child being abused.
• Adults not responding appropriately when children make outcries of abuse which could
result in the abuse continuing or the perpetrator abusing other children.
• Adults assuming certain people, such as their significant others, family members or
family friends, would never abuse children and therefore: may be more likely to
completely trust these individuals to be alone with or care for children.
■ Childrn not having knowledge of personal safety or boundaries and not knowing how
to tell a trusted adult ahnul the abuse_
Alliance For Children seeks to address these contributors of child abuse through providing
education to adults and children throuF)iout Fort Worth and Tarrant County. Additionally,
Alliance For Children improves the investigative process of child abuse cases by providing
support to the multi-disciplinary team partners. This support to the partners helps the success
of investigations and ensures that familics are receiving the resources they need.The trauma of
the abuse is lessened through the resources and healing services Alliance For Children provides
Page 17 of 35

to children and their families. Without engaging victims of child abuse in healing services,
symptoms of child abuse may be seen, including substance abuse issues, untreated mental
health issues,low school performance,and other issues that may stem From a child not Mowing
how to cope with the trauma from child abuse. 'These symptoms can affect the lifelong health
and wellbeing ofthese children and their families and have long term effects on the community
in which the child and,family reside.

and increase resiliency and healing. Ilealing leads to healthier and more productive citizens in
the City of Fort Worth. The Multidisciplinary Team Coordination Program's purpose is to
increase the effectiveness of the teamed approach by increase communication and
collaboration,as well as support for our frontline investigators to ensure families are reaching
the support and healing services lhcy need after being impacted by child abuse. To measure
