Incident Forms &
Mandated Reporting Guide
Incident Form At School
If a student is injured during a program, staff are required to complete an Incident Report within 24 hours of the incident.
The report must include clear details of what occurred, including how the injury happened, any immediate actions taken, and who was involved.
Once completed, the report should be submitted promptly to the Program Manager for review and follow-up.
Timely and accurate reporting ensures the safety of our programs and supports effective communication with schools and families.
Child Abuse/Neglect Mandated Reporter Step-By-Step Guide
As mandated reporters, you have a legal and ethical responsibility to take immediate action when they suspect a child is being abused or neglected.
This step-by-step guide outlines the required procedures to follow—from making an initial report to a manager, to documenting the incident, and filing the official report within the required 36-hour window.
Accurate reporting protects the safety of children and ensures we are in full compliance with California state law. Failure to report can result in serious legal consequences, so all staff must understand and follow these steps carefully.
