report abuse
The Reporting Process
- Everyone is a permissive reporter and is encouraged to make a report of suspected child abuse. Reporters of suspected child abuse fall into two categories.
- Mandated reporters are those adults who come into direct contact with children in the course of their employment or volunteer of a regularly scheduled program or activity, who accepts responsibility for a child.
- The trigger to report is a reasonable suspicion that a child is being abused. Permissive reporters may report anonymously; mandated reporters may not.
Making a report of Child Abuse
- Reports of suspected child abuse are to be made immediately.
- If the child is in imminent danger, call 911.
- Reports may be made orally by phone or electronically.
- Oral reports are made to ChildLine at 1-800-932-0313 which is available 24/7.
- Electronic reports are made via CWIS Self-Service portal at: www.compass.state.pa.us/cwis
- Inform the supervisor or person in charge of your program that a report was made.
- To report church-related abuse to the Diocese of Pittsburgh call: 1-888-808-1235
