In this episode of One in Ten, host Teresa Huizar speaks with Dr. Robin Ortiz, an assistant professor in the Department of Pediatrics at NYU Grossman School of Medicine, about neglect recurrence in child abuse cases. Dr. Ortiz discusses the factors contributing to neglect recurrence, including adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), environmental influences, and societal factors. They explore the gaps in the literature, the complexities of defining neglect, and the need for tailored interventions. Findings from Dr. Ortiz's recent research indicate that various risk factors exist at the child, family, community, and policy levels, and they emphasize the importance of societal investment in mental health, substance abuse treatment, domestic violence intervention, and financial stability to prevent neglect. The episode highlights the need for a comprehensive approach to support families and break the cycle of neglect.
