"Child maltreatment includes all types of abuse and neglect of a child under the age of 18 by a parent, caregiver, or another person in a custodial role (e.g., clergy, coach, teacher). There are four common types of maltreatment."

There were 683,000 victims of child abuse and neglect reported to child protective services (CPS) in 2015.
The youngest children are the most vulnerable with about 24% of children in their first year of life experiencing victimization.
CPS reports may underestimate the true occurrence of abuse and neglect. A non-CPS study estimated that 1 in 4 children experience some form of child abuse or neglect in their lifetimes.
About 1,670 children died from abuse or neglect in 2015.
The total lifetime cost of child abuse and neglect is estimated at $124 billion each year.
