Association of Child Protection Professionals
The Association of Child Protection Professionals (AoCPP), formerly the British Association for the Prevention of Child Abuse and Neglect (BASPCAN), is an anti-child abuse charity established in June 1979 by a group led by British paediatricians Alfred White Franklin and Tina Cooper.[1] The Association aims to bring together professionals from social services, medicine, law, police, courts, probation and education to promote best practice tackling child abuse.
The Association's official journal is Child Abuse Review, launched in 1992 and published since its inception by Wiley.
