- police
- fire personnel
- physicians
- dentists
- nurses
- teachers
- school principals
- others with a medical, legal, or professional background and who are likely to interact with children
Mandatory Reporters MUST report suspicions of child abuse to an authority, usually the police AND child protective services. Mandatory Reporters do NOT have to notify the parent or guardian before making their report, and Mandatory Reporters have the same right of anonymity as other people.
