title: Race and child abuse.
abstract: Very little is known about the relationship between race and child abuse. Skills in prevention, detection and family support have not increased at the same pace as for the majority population. This article looks at some of the factors associated with child abuse in black and ethnic minority communities and suggests how health professionals can improve their skills in working with this section of our population.
