Who do I contact if I suspect child abuse?
To report suspected abuse or neglect call the department of social services in the locality in which the child lives or where the alleged abuse has occurred (Charlottesville Social Services: 434-970-3400). You may also call:
Virginia Child Abuse and Neglect Hotline
1-800-552-7096 (voice/TTY)
If you feel that the child is in immediate and severe physical danger, call Child Protective Services (Charlottesville CPS: 434-970-3400) and/or local law enforcement immediately (Charlottesville Police Department: 434-977-9041).
If you are working with a child through a public school, there may be additional reporting protocol required by the school. Please see the Education: Abuse section for more information.
