For more than 30 years, New York State law requires professionals working under over thirty different titles to take training in the identification and reporting of suspected child maltreatment. In 2023, New York State updated that training to address significant issues that have impacted thousands of families in the state. The legal requirement to report suspicions of child maltreatment is confusing to navigate in relation to our other professional and ethical responsibilities.
Over the past twenty years, Dr. Kathryn Krase, JD, MSW has trained tens of thousands of New York State professionals. She has also authored multiple books and dozens of articles on the topic of mandated reporting. Through this workshop, Dr. Krase provides profession-based context to the role of mandated reporter where professionals are charged with knowing how to support their clients and when they are required to report a concern to child protective services. Mandated reporters will learn a framework to guide the decision to make this “tough call” using research findings and practical advice based on real case examples. This training meets the updated 2023 New York State standards for training in the identification and reporting of suspected child maltreatment. Participants will receive the required updated certificate after successful completion of the post-test.
