Falling Between The Cracks: Understanding Why States Fail In Protecting Our Children From Crime, Michal Gilad
Falling Between The Cracks: Understanding Why States Fail In Protecting Our Children From Crime, Michal Gilad
All Faculty Scholarship
The article is the first to take an inclusive look at the monumental problem of crime exposure during childhood, which is estimated to be one of the most damaging and costly public health and public safety problem in our society today. It takes-on the challenging task of ‘naming’ the problem by coining the term Comprehensive Childhood Crime Impact or in short the Triple-C Impact.

Hb 359 - Power Of Attorney, Roma A. Amin, Catherine V. Schutz
Georgia State University Law Review
The bill would have repealed and replaced Georgia’s Power of Attorney for the Care of a Minor Child Act.
