163. Reporting child abuse
Texas has mandatory reporting of child abuse. Any Texans who know of an infant being hit, you have a duty to call Child Protective Services (CPS). You may make an anonymous report.

CPS may need a series of reports to investigate and intervene in a family situation. Document and report every incidence of child abuse.

If you cannot find the local number for CPS, call (800) 4-A-CHILD.

NATIONAL HOT LINE: (800) 4-A-CHILD
