Abstract
Professional school counselors are in the position to act as the first line of defense in identifying, reporting, and preventing child abuse and neglect. This presentation will begin by exploring the challenges school counselors face when completing a mandated report. Next, ethical and legal mandates will be discussed. Lastly, a mandated reporting model and advocacy strategies to use in schools will be explored. Participants will be given a copy of the model and resource links.
