np DP Important Announcement ‘We, the undersigned, affirm that any individual with firsthand knowledge or reasonable basis to suspect child abuse has a religious obligation to promptly notify the secular law enforcement of that information. These individuals have the experience, expertise and training to thoroughly and responsibly investigate the matter, Furthermore, those deemed “mandated reporters" under secular law must obey their State's reporting requirements. Lives can be mined or ended by unreported child abuse, as we are too often tragically reminded. The Torah’s statement in Levitieus 19:16, “Do not stand by while your neighbor's blood is shed,” obligates every member of the community to do all in one’s power to prevent harm to others, In conclusion, every individual with firsthand knowledge or reasonable cause for suspicion of child abuse has a Torah obligation to promptly notify the proper civil authorities, Lceublte Chin Fe e Z Ae — Mawel peat Als Lpaendkle Ahn Jo HaRav Shmuel Fuerst Harav Nota Greenblatt ‘HaRay Elehonon Tauber Dayan, Agudas Yisroel Dayan, Posek and Rosh Yeshiva Dayan and Mora D’Asra Chicago, IL Yeshiva Gedola of Memphis Bais Yehudah Memphis, TN Los Angeles, CA Jigbimteg Werke dbeard'r bhaucn “ford fh.
