Association (BCSTA), founder of
the one-year-old provincial Task
Force on Child Abuse,
released key recommendations ob-
tained in a recent survey of B.C.
school districts and also the con-

abuse detection, prevention and
treatment.

Dr. Eric Buckley, president of
the BCSTA, said many B.C.
school districts have been active in
