Describe two ways the law protects caregivers who report suspected cases of child abuse and neglect.
,section 39.202, F.S. states that the name of the person reporting the child abuse or neglect shall not be
released to any person other than employees of the department responsible for child protective
services, early intervention and prevention services, Healthy Start services, licensing agents, and
domestic violence services. A reporter's name can be released to these individuals without his or her
written consent. Other than that, this law ensures that confidentiality will be maintained for the person
reporting the suspected cases of child abuse and/or neglect.
Section 39.203, F.S. states "any person, official, or institution participating in good faith in any act
authorized or required by Chapter 39, or reporting in good faith any instance of child abuse to any law
enforcement agency, shall be immune from any civil or criminal liability which might otherwise result by
reason of such action."

agencies, or within law enforcement agencies. Child Protective Services provides services that protect
children from abuse and neglect, enforces the statutes on child abuse and neglect prevention, and
initiates the process of protecting the abused from further victimization.

well-being of children and families.

victim advocacy programs to provide information and support through the legal system.
