Wisconsin Child Abuse and Neglect Reporting (WI Child Abuse Reporting)
Wisconsin takes reports of suspected child abuse and neglect at the county or tribal level. To report, contact the Child Protective Services agency in the county or tribe where the child or the child's family lives; if you are not sure, contact the closest county. The Department of Children and Families maintains a statewide list of county and tribal reporting contacts. Mandated reporters must report when they have reasonable cause to suspect abuse or neglect, and the reporter's identity is kept confidential by law.
Who it is for
Anyone who suspects a child is being abused or neglected in Wisconsin, including mandated reporters such as teachers, health care providers, and social workers. If a child is in immediate danger or the abuse is happening now, call 911.
