NH Statutes require that any person who has reason to suspect the abuse or neglect of a child under the age of 18 must make a report immediately to the Division for Children, Youth and Families (DCYF). Proof of abuse or neglect is not required before reporting. If you have reason to suspect that a child has been abused or neglected, contact DCYF at 1-800-894-5533 or (603) 271-6556, Monday through Friday during the hours of 8:00am - 4:30pm. On weekends, holidays or after 4:30pm weekdays, call your local police department if the concerns about child abuse and neglect are immediate.
