'" Adolescent Abuse Project cont. The work has also involved working with families who have been reported to the County WeHare Department for sexual or physical abuse of their adolescent chil- dren. This entails investigation, assessment and case planning directed toward the protection of the child or children and elimination of the conditions which led to the injury. Appropriate resources are utilized to strengthen the family life. . In order to provide outreach services the project is taking reports of abuse directly rather .than having these reports processed through the downtown intake office. In addition to being able to respond quickly to abuse reports this enables us to provide consultations on situations which are not clearly abuse. By being officed at the Community Resource Center we are able to respond more efficiently and effectively to abused adolescents and their famil ies as well as the community.
