Florida Child Protection Teams Virtual Presentation Mimics of Child Abuse October 15, 2026

The Florida Department of Health awarded contract C7A638 to deliver educational content focused on child protection training. The contract, valued at $1,500.00, was executed on September 18, 2026, with a completion date of September 30, 2026. The deliverable consists of one virtual presentation designed to educate Florida Child Protection Teams on mimics of child abuse—conditions and presentations that may resemble abuse but have alternative medical or environmental explanations. This instructional content serves a critical public health function by enhancing the diagnostic and assessment capabilities of child protection personnel.

The contract period spans 12 calendar days, representing a compressed delivery schedule typical of specialized training initiatives. While the specific prime contractor name is not provided in the available documentation, the contracting organization's designation as the Department of Health indicates the program falls under the state's child welfare and protection framework. The virtual presentation format reflects contemporary remote delivery methodologies for professional development, enabling broad accessibility for geographically dispersed team members across Florida's child protection system.
