Yes. When CPS is contacted concerning a child's health or welfare it usually comes from a school, preschool, or hospital and the social worker comes to the site to speak to the child to determine if the report needs to be followed up on and if they should take further action.

∙ 11y agoYes, CPS has the mandate to protect children and in most states the CPS worker talks to the child or children in a neutral location (like schoool or daycare) before the parent even knows there is a referral. This is so that if the child seems to be abused, the child can be protected from the parents and not returned to them while an investigation occurs. When your child is questioned, you probably feel scared and nervous and a bit outraged. Just remember, the procedure was developed to protect children who are being severely abused and to allow cps to get the children to a safe location when the situation is really bad.
