Child Abuse Reporting Requirements

Purpose: If you think you understand your reporting requirements in the State of Texas, think again. Pulling examples straight from the headlines, this training will explore the statutory definitions of "abuse" and "neglect" and reveal just how far-reaching the obligation to report is and the implications for educators who fail to report.

Focus:

  • Definitions of Abuse and Neglect
  • Reporting Requirements, Including Timelines and Appropriate Authorities
  • Who Must Report
  • Penalties for Failing to Report

Audience: All staff, including Administrators, Teachers, and Counselors
