Child Sexual Abuse Investigations: Testing Documentation Methods

Lucy Berliner, Roxanne Lieb

The 1999 Legislature directed the Department of Social and Health Services (DSHS) to establish three pilot projects involving child sexual abuse investigations.  The Child Protective Services (CPS) offices were to use written protocols and test different methods and techniques to conduct and preserve interviews with alleged victims of child sexual abuse.  This report examines the quality, feasibility, utility of interview techniques in each pilot site.
