This reporting system has been provided for your convenience to report suspected instances of abuse / neglect which occurred in Kentucky and do not require an emergency response. A situation where a child or adult is at immediate risk of abuse / neglect that could result in death or serious harm is considered an emergency.
Children may react to the experience of abuse in very different ways depending on their personality, their age, gender, the nature of the abuse, and their relationship to the abuser. It is usual for children of all ages to play and experiment, and be curious about their own and each other’s bodies. A possible sign that a child may be experiencing sexual abuse however is sexual behavior that is not age appropriate.
