Ethical and legal issues in mandated reporting

Mandated reporting laws require mental health providers to report suspected abuse or neglect of vulnerable populations, including children, elderly individuals, and individuals with disabilities. Clinicians will learn about mandated reporting requirements as well as some of the issues they need to keep front of mind as they build relationships with their clients or are faced with mandatory reporting situations. We’ll also address how to approach these situations in the context of clinical supervision.
