Why it is important to report suspected abuse?

Many times, people have good reason to suspect that a child they know is being abused or neglected. But they don’t report. There aren’t any good reasons for not reporting suspected child abuse or neglect. First, it is the law. Second, it is confidential. Investigators are prohibited by law to reveal the identity of the person who made the report. Third, it is every adult’s moral responsibility. Abuse that goes unreported cannot be investigated and can result in trauma that lasts a lifetime – even the needless death of a child.
