Notes:
- For Child Death or Serious Injury to be included in the report OCDEL Certification staff verified that the event was caused by a health and safety violation.
- The Child Protective Services Law (CPSL) requires the Pennsylvania Department of Human Services to annually report to the governor and General Assembly on child abuse in the commonwealth. The report provides information on the efforts to protect and help children who were reported as victims of suspected abuse and neglect. The report is published annually in the spring of the following year. Licensed child care providers are included in the report as part of the aggregated child care services total. Beginning in 2021, for which the report will be published in 2022, child care statistics will be included by license type. Please see the 2022 Annual Child Protective Services Report for specifics.
