Prevent Child Abuse Ripley County wants you
to know that 425 Children were reported abused or neglected in the past
twelve months in our community. It is estimated that the number of
children actually abused and/or neglected in Ripley County is three
times that amount. It DOES happen here! If you suspect a child is in
danger, call the Child Protective Services at 1-800-800-5556. You can
also call your local law enforcement officials or Ripley County Office
of Families and Children. You can make your call anonymously. And
remember: it's not your duty to investigate, but it IS your obligation
under the law to report any suspected abuse or neglected situations.
Please help protect Ripley County children. |
