Multidisciplinary Team Case Review
The purpose of the Multidisciplinary Team (MDT) is to develop a standard response, using a team approach, to the investigation and prosecution of all child abuse cases. This Team works collaboratively to reduce trauma to children, promote successful legal intervention, and work to ensure the availability of appropriate follow-up services for children and their families.
Once a month, team members will meet monthly to make referrals for appropriate services and discuss the status of cases.
The Multidisciplinary Team Facilitator is responsible for facilitating the multidisciplinary team response to investigations involving
child abuse allegations in the respective jurisdictions in which Kids Hub CAC serves. The multidisciplinary team is comprised of those
individuals responsible for investigating, prosecuting, and servicing child abuse victims and their non-offending caregivers. This team
works together to coordinate efforts on all such cases in order to reduce the trauma for the child and family having to navigate
through all of the various systems.
