Welcome to the Reporting Abuse training module, designed for all employees or volunteers working with children and families in Not for Profit organizations, including School Districts, in the North Peace and Northern Rockies.
The Child, Family and Community Service Act requires anyone who has reason to believe that a child has been or is likely to be at risk has a legal duty to make a report to a child welfare worker or directly to the police if a child is in immediate danger.
About Us
