Finding Help In My State
Phone list courtesy ChildHelp
USA.
Abuse must be reported within the state
in which it occurs.
When seeking to report abuse, it is important to remember these points:
* Not every state has a reporting hotline
* Not every hotline is accessible 24 hours a day
* If the state does have a hotline, it may only be accessible within
that state
* Should you need to report in another state or the particular state
does not have a hotline, you may need to contact the out-of-state reporting
number or the specific county in which the abuse occurred. The Childhelp
National Child Abuse Hotline can provide these numbers for you.
