We “Neglect can also be harm- ful to a child’and may even be a forerunner of abuse. Neglect includes such things as mal- nourishment, lack of essential medical care, unlawfully being kept from school.” To examine responsibilities of the community and the resources available to it, a film called “Fragile — Handle with Care” will be shown followed by a series of presentations from people working in the medical, legal and social work fit elds.
