Who Are Mandated Reporters?  

Mandated Reporters play a critical role in preventing future harm by recognizing abuse and neglect and reporting it promptly. 

Under Virginia law (§ 63.2-1509 for children and § 63.2-1606 for adults), specific professionals have a legal duty to report suspected abuse, neglect or exploitation. These include teachers, health care providers, law enforcement, social workers and others who regularly work with children or vulnerable adults.
