11. Volunteer Safety Information Form On July 1, 2012, Georgia law changed to include school volunteers to the group of people who are required to report any case of suspected child abuse or neglect. With these changes, school districts can better protect children and ensure their safety and wellbeing. Like teachers, administrators, guidance counselors, social workers, and other school employees, school volunteers – because they frequently come in contact with children during their volunteer duties – are now considered “mandated reporters.” A mandated reporter is someone who must notify the Fulton County Department of Family Children Services (DFACS) within 24 hours if they suspect a child is being abused or neglected.
