What Can You Do About Child Abuse In Group Homes?

When a group home fails to provide a safe and nurturing environment for your child, it’s a violation of their trust and their rights. You can stand up for your child by making a report to the proper authorities, starting legal action, and holding a group home accountable for its neglect, abuse, and failure to meet the legal standard of care.

Don’t wait. Abuse can cause developmental disability or mental illness. Take action quickly to improve a vulnerable child’s life and protect them from further harm. Your actions may prevent harm to other children too.

Start preserving any evidence you encounter through photos, videos, and paperwork. Discuss your concerns with a qualified Maryland group home lawyer who has extensive experience handling these types of cases.
