2011 End of Year Child Victimization Report to Cabarrus County Commissioners <br />The Cabarrus Child Victimization Council is comprised of the Community Child <br />Protection Team and the Child Fatality Prevention Task Force, both of which are <br />mandated by NC General Statute. The Community Child Protection Team meets <br />eight times per year and the Child Fatality Task Force meets four times per year; <br />the December meeting is a joint meeting of the two teams. All meetings are held the <br />fourth Wednesday of each month at 12:00 noon at the Human Services Auditorium <br />at the Cabarrus County Department of Social Services. <br />Margaret M. Cox, a community representative to the COPT, employed by the <br />Cooperative Christian Ministry, is in her fifth year as chair of this committee. <br />Felicia A. Wilson, vice -chair of the COPT, employed by Cabarrus/Rowan County <br />Guardian Ad Litem Program, has served for one year and six months. Suzanne <br />Knight, BSN, MPH, Clinical Services Practice Manager at the Cabarrus Health <br />Alliance, chairs the Child Fatality Task Force, and has for a number of years. <br />Membership <br />Membership of the CCPT is mandated by law, and our Cabarrus team is very <br />fortunate to have active participation by every mandated member or their <br />representative.

We are hopeful that we can add a representative from <br />the Cabarrus County Commission and the DSS Board of Directors within the next <br />year. <br />Activities <br />One of the primary duties of the CCPT is to review cases of child maltreatment <br />brought by the DSS or any CCPT member. The purpose of the review is to identify <br />gaps in services and resources in our community and to aid the DSS in their service <br />delivery to the families receiving child protective and other child welfare services. <br />The team's task is to make recommendations to the DSS for specific actions that <br />need to be taken to strengthen the services provided and to advocate in the <br />community for those services or resources that are missing or there is some barrier <br />to their being accessed. <br />In 2011, the team addressed seven different cases and heard up -dates on some of <br />those seven at subsequent meetings. Of the seven cases reviewed, the most recurring <br />Attachment number 1 <br />1 -1 Page 238 <br />
