Important Announcement

We, the undersigned, affirm that any individual with firsthand knowledge or reasonable basis to suspect child abuse

has a religious obligation to promptly notify the secular law enforcement of that information. These individuals have

the experience, expertise and training to thoroughly and responsibly investigate the matter. Furthermore, those

deemed “mandated reporters” under secular law must obey their State’s reporting requirements.

Lives can be ruined or ended by unreported child abuse, as we are too often tragically reminded. The Torah’s

statement in Leviticus 19:16, “Do not stand by while your neighbor’s blood is shed," obligates every member of the

community to do all in one's power to prevent harm to others. In conclusion, every individual with firsthand

knowledge or reasonable cause for suspicion of child abuse has a Torah obligation to promptly notify the proper civil

authorities.
