How to report child protection concerns?
If you believe that a child has been abused or neglected, you should report your concerns to the Dodge County Human Services and Health Department. You can contact the Department at (920) 386-3750 from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday, excluding holidays. The names and identifying information of reporters is kept confidential by this agency, however, a person may report child protection concerns anonymously. What will happen when concerns are reported? Upon contacting this agency, a social worker will write up your report. It is very important to have at least basic information such as names, ages, and addresses of family members. It is also very helpful to give information about the suspected abuse or neglect. The more information a reporter is able or willing to provide to the intake worker, the better subsequent agency decision making will be. A supervisor will review the report and decide if a situation warrants action on the part of the child protective services unit.
