HOW TO MAKE A REPORT OF SEXUAL ABUSE: Child sexual abuse is a crime in the State of New Hampshire and the Church. New Hampshire law requires that anyone who has reason to suspect that a child is being or has been abused or neglected must make a report to the Division for Children, Youth and Families ("DCYF") of the State of New Hampshire, 1-800-894-5533. Any person who suspects or alleges child abuse on the part of a priest, deacon, employee, or volunteer of a parish, school, or institution of the Diocese of Manchester is also encouraged to make a report to the Office for Ministerial Conduct, 603-669-3100.

Church personnel--clergy, paid employees, and volunteers--have additional reporting requirements if they believe the Church personnel have sexually abused a child. To learn more about the reporting requirements, go to the diocesan website under Child Safety: www.catholicchurchnh.org
