Believe it or not NONE at the federal level, maybe there are some five-ten man squads on the F.B,I. but not to my knowledge. there is no Federal Child Abuse agency. Back when H.E.W. was under one roof ( and Mr. Califano had the Conn) it might have been more conceivable to have a federal agency directly aimed against child abuse. There isn"t any- say, comparable to the FDA, EPA, FBI, etc.
