Child Abuse. This school believes child abuse is mistreatment or neglect of a child by any parent(s) or other guardian, whether intentional or not, that results in injury or harm to the child. This includes physical abuse, emotional abuse, verbal abuse, sexual abuse or neglect. As such, we are vehemently opposed to such treatment and will comply with the Mandatory State Reporting Law that requires us to report any SUSPECTED cases of child abuse within 36 hours. Our goal is to protect each child we meet, as well as offer viable parenting information to parents to prevent such a problem from occurring or re-occurring. We want to be here for you as a friend, to offer help and support, BUT WE DO HAVE A LEGAL RESPONSIBILITY TO REPORT ANY SUSPECTED CASE. (Also see “Inspection Authority”) CONFIDENTIALITY OF RECORDS All information and records obtained from or regarding our child(ren) shall be confidential. The Center will be responsible for safeguarding the confidentiality of record contents. All children’s records shall be available to State licensing to inspect, audit, and copy upon demand during normal business hours. All children’s records shall be kept for at least three years following termination of service to the child.
