Abstract

Introduction: Child abuse and neglect is the extent to which society is not well known,   most of that are hidden, many more victims do not mention in a public health problem.  Abused and neglected child reaches very few repute institutions. Generally, the cases remain  hidden in the family.  Result: The descriptive and inferential statistics were used to compute the data. The   pre-test showed that 42(84%) mothers had inadequate awareness and 6(12%) mothers had   moderately adequate awareness and 3(6%) mothers had adequate awareness on child abuse.  The post-test revealed that 16(32%) mothers had gained moderately adequate awareness,  44(88%) mothers had gained adequate awareness and none had inadequate awareness on  child abuse. There was an improvement in the mean awareness score regarding child abuse  which was significant (p0.000). The post-test revealed that 50(100%) mothers had gained  adequate awareness on child abuse and none had inadequate practice. The structured
teaching programme significantly increased the awareness among the mothers regarding  child abuse. This shows the effectiveness of structured teaching programme. Hence the   hypothesis was supported.  Conclusion: The study suggests a need for a more extensive and comprehensive approach  to child abuse education and especially awareness. However health workers are the sole
supporters of the community in this issue.
