Child Abuse Reporting

Pennsylvania child abuse reporting requirements have recently changed. All school employees now have a new reporting procedure and increased reporting obligations under the Child Protective Services Law. The Educator Discipline Act also establishes new reporting requirements for educators.

PSEA's Legal Division created several resources to explain the reporting requirements and how they affect educators.
