Joining Julie and Chrissa this week is Dr Barbara Harre from the Child Protection Response Center in Davenport, Iowa.
During the 1970’s, the Quad City community recognized a lack of access to medical services related to child abuse assessments. Despite the fact that the Quad Cities had 39 pediatricians, physically and/or sexually abused children were being sent an hour and a half away to Cedar Rapids or Peoria for medical attention, or worse yet, not being seen at all.
Since 2001, Dr. Barbara Harre has been able to devote her further training and practice activities to meeting this need. Established in 2006, the Child Protection Response Center (CPRC) is part of the multidisciplinary protection response team in Scott County.
In February 2010, Dr. Harre became board certified by the American Academy of Pediatrics in the subspecialty of child neglect and maltreatment. In 2015, the CPRC became an accredited member of the National Children’s Alliance.
Dr. Harre has tailed her practice to continuing to care for children and families long after a trauma has occurred. Her philosophy is not simply treating the immediate trauma, but to deliver a continuation of care that goes well beyond a one-time visit.
