Section 38-15-2 Legislative findings. The Legislature finds that there is a substantial need to protect children and youth from abuse and neglect by persons entrusted with their physical custody, and from persons or organizations that advertise, hold themselves out, or lead others to believe that they will provide them with health, therapeutic, rehabilitative, or disciplinary services, and from persons employed or exercising authority over them, and who they depend upon to provide the basic necessities of life.
