Suspected Child Abuse/Neglect: Any suspected child abuse or neglect will be reported to the Human Services Department. “Every person, private citizen, or professional, in New Mexico who has reason to believe that a child under 18 has been abused is mandated by law to report the suspected abuse. Failure to do so is a crime. No person, regardless of his or her relationship with the child or family, is immune from reporting suspected abuse. A person making a report in good faith is immune from both civil and criminal liability.” (STOP CHILD ABUSE/NEGLECT. Human Services Department, Santa Fe, NM)
Allegations of child abuse shall be promptly investigated and corrective or disciplinary action taken as warranted. Parents will be notifies verbally and in writing if their child is involved.
Complaining parties shall be required to swear or affirm that the facts stated in the complaint are true to the best of the person’s belief, knowledge, and information.Con't. on next page
