Atlanta Escorts: State child advocate resigns
Posted on January 5th, 2010 in Atlanta escorts
Tensions rose recently when Rawlings criticized some of the agency’s methods in dealing with complaints of child abuse and neglect.
Rawlings said he was concerned some state caseworkers were not adequately investigating complaints of child abuse and neglect, placing children at risk of injury and even death. The agency largely denied that was happening.
His resignation, which became effective Dec. 31, arrived shortly after Perdue appointed him to serve in the post until 2012. Rawlings said he did not leave the post due to any hard feelings, but rather to pursue another opportunity to help children.
He will serve as the director of the Guatemala office for International Justice Mission, a Washington, D.C.-based nonprofit that fights child abuse, child trafficking for prostitution and other human rights issues across the globe.
