Publicity surrounding child abuse—sexual, physical and mental—have greatly increased the degree to which these crimes are reported. And yet, there are an untold number of child victims who remain silent. The appointment of mandatory child abuse reporters, which includes attorneys in Oregon, is one measure being utilized to counter the culture of silence surrounding this type of abuse. Attorneys in Oregon, as part of their responsibilities as mandatory child abuse reporters, are required to complete regular training in child abuse reporting as part of their continuing legal education. Presented by Peter Janci of O’Donnell Clark and Crew, LLP, a civil litigation attorney specializing in the representation of victims of child sexual abuse against perpetrators and institutions that do not take action against child abuse, this CLE course will provide a detailed overview of the reporting required by Oregon attorneys, explain the relevant laws and their significance and the procedures for reporting. The course will also explain the penalties and liabilities for failure to report and for erroneous reporting.
