REPORTING SUSPECTED ABUSE
Remember, it is against the law to hurt a child. You must report it when you suspect a child is being abused. After you report abuse, wait a week and then call again to see what has been done. Watch for new signs of abuse and report each one.
Each time you call, write down the time, date, and who you talked to. Write down the child's name and what evidence you have that the child is being abused.
