DOVER, Del. – Governor Jack Markell was joined by legislators, child advocates and community partners at the Children's Advocacy Center as he signed legislation Thursday that further protects children who are victims of abuse and neglect.

The Bill aims to ensure the investigation and disposition of cases of child abuse and neglect are conducted in a comprehensive, integrated and multi-disciplinary manner, thereby significantly reducing communication and coordination gaps that currently exist.

The legislation comes in the wake of the Dr. Earl Bradley case.
