The sexual abuse of children is one of these public health metrics that does not require prevalence to lead to the development of interventions programs.  The above maps depict child abuse raw data in normal 1n and n-squared form to demonstrate where peak regions for reported cases exist.  .  The State Child Welfare Policy Database reviews this major health issue, at the policy level.  This site has a national map for reviewing the state statutes pertaining to this public health concern.
