Reimagining Mandated Reporting: From Harm to Hope
Mandated reporting is meant to protect children—but for Black families and other racially minoritized groups, it often causes more harm than good. Nearly half of all children in the U.S. will be reported to Child Welfare by the time they turn 18, yet only a fraction of cases are substantiated.

In my latest series, I share the story of one family’s journey through this flawed system and how transparency, education, and antiracist care helped them navigate it.

✨ Let’s rethink how we protect families. Join the conversation and explore how we can transform mandated reporting into mandated supporting.
