Child Protection Team

A Child Protection Team (CPT) is a group of professionals dedicated to ensuring the safety and well-being of children at risk of abuse or neglect. Typically composed of social workers, law enforcement, healthcare providers, and legal experts, the CPT investigates reports of child maltreatment, assesses the child's situation, and collaborates with families to provide support and interventions. Their ultimate goal is to protect vulnerable children and promote healthy family environments while ensuring that any actions taken are in the child's best interest.
