Mandatory Reporting Database

RAINN's policy department developed this database of mandatory reporting regulations regarding children and the elderly by state, including who is required to report, standards of knowledge, definitions of a victim, to whom the report must be made, information required in the report, and regulations regarding timing and other procedures. We thank the numerous law student volunteers and law firms who provided pro bono assistance in compiling the database. For more information, please contact RAINN's Vice President of Public Policy, Evelyn Fortier, at EvelynF@rainn.org .
