The Mandatory Reporting of Abuse, Neglect, and Dependency of Children, and Abuse or Neglect of Disabled Adults in North Carolina |
The Board encourages all licensees to become familiar with the sections of the North Carolina Juvenile Code (G.S. 7B-300) and the Protection of the Abused, Neglected or Exploited Disabled Adult Act (G.S. 7B-103) which contain the requirements for reporting of abuse and neglect of juveniles and disabled adults, respectively. While the Board does not maintain copies of these statutes for distribution, copies of such may be found in most public libraries.
