Child protection by “culture of the Miteinanders”
Lea Sophie, Kevin, Dennis, Michelle - one connects these names with child abusing, abuse and neglects. Much was demanded after these cases. Some was already reached. With the symposium “the threatened child” in Coburg became clear: a co-operation of all is important to the protection of children.
Coburg - family Secretary of State Melanie Huml (CSU) demanded a “culture of the Miteinanders” to the protection of children from abusing and neglect. “Parents must be supported with signs by excessive demand in time”, said Huml on Saturday with the symposium “the threatened child” of the clinical center in Coburg.
Common acting of all participants is locally necessary. Child and juvenile welfare service, health range, school, police and law would have to pull together on a strand. The establishment of social early warning systems is of central importance in this connection.
Measures to the protection
The municipalities were supported starting from 2009 during the mechanism by so-called coordinating child protection places financially by the Free State. They are to bundle concerned occupational groups and institutions according to Huml the authority of all with children and guarantee an intensified exchange.
Further improvements were reached after the words of the Secretary of State by legal initiatives. So early recognition investigations are obligating for May. Besides the report obligation was legally embodied by physicians and midwives to youth welfare offices, if they determine clear reference points for an endangerment of the child well-being.
