Abstract: 

This article discusses the fiscal impacts of child abuse. In recent years, it has become more urgent to focus on the need for early intervention and prevention programs that are curtailing child abuse and neglect incidents. We know now that abuse and neglect have long-term psychological, neurological, and sociological impacts on individuals. The impact also includes heightened fiscal outlays at a time when treatment program money is tight and need for such services is high.
