title: Comment on Cross, Fine, Jones, and Walsh (2012): Good therapeutic services--therapeutic advocacy and forensic neutrality.
abstract: Cross, Fine, Jones, and Walsh (2012 ) provided a thoughtful review and critique of a book chapter describing the interview process at Child Advocacy Centers. They observed some of the ways that concerns raised in that chapter are being addressed and described revised guidelines that further clarify issues. Ongoing research and examination of the important processes carried on by child advocacy centers and the role fulfilled by mental health professionals in the investigation of child sexual abuse contributes positively to service delivery.
