description Child abuse is one of the growing crimes, in recent days and there has been a significant increase in child abuse statistics. Therefore, it is very important to take the necessary measures to prevent such criminal behaviors. Child and Adolescent Protection act, adopted in 1399, is one of the legislative innovations to prevention and legal confrontation with this phenomenon that provided significant legal protections to children and adolescents. However, there are still many legal and practical challenges facing it. In this library research, innovations and challenges of this act were examined, the result of this studies are as follows: One of the innovations of this act is maximizing the capacity of government organizations such as the Welfare Organization to prevent child abuse, identifying and providing legal protection to children and adolescents at risk of victimization such as children dropping out of school, children with parents Prisoners, addicts, and redefining the harms to children and adolescents, such as economic exploitation of children and child pornography. On the other hand, the practical challenges of this law are the restriction of the concept of emotional harassment and the lack of enforcement guarantees for it, the imposition of minimum punishments for abusive parents, the imposition of minimum punishments for sexual harassment, and the lack of appropriate mechanisms to personality file for abused children.
