Knowledge of the best means to communicate with the child is stressed as are knowing about the history of the child and her/his family (i.e. family status, significant adults, names/nicknames, daily routines, adults with private access, school grade level, problems in school, disclosure (of abuse) time/place, and events surrounding disclosure. Notes: Script developed by Kee MacFarlane, Sandy Krebs, and Joy Jacot. Child Developments consultants were Karen Saywitz, PhD; Ian Russ M.A., and Linda Damon, PhD. Sandra Baker of the Sacramento, Ca.
