Provide at least three statistical data points that you consider critical to increase society’s awareness about the serious issues related to child and elder abuse. One of the data points should be from your residential state. The others can be national statistics. Include why knowing this information is important.
The statistical data should come from at least three different credible sources and cannot be more than 3 years old.
The data source, including date, must be cited with each statistical data point.
