Okay, let me offer this as another option for the second part of the sentence:
"The APA's call for further research, clinical care, and public policy directed towards maltreated disabled children signals that despite thirty years of evidence linking maltreatment and disabilities, key questions remain unanswered leaving many of the needs of this vulnerable population [adverb] unmet."
It gives you the parallel structure and moves the sentence forward. The [adverb] is optional but I think it would give the sentence a better flow. I'm thinking "woefully" would bea good one to use.

How does that sound to you?
