NH Law requires any person who suspects that a child under age 18 has been abused or neglected must report that suspicion immediately to DCYF. (New Hampshire RSA 169-C:29-31).

If a child tells you that he or she has been hurt or you are concerned that a child may be the victim of any type of abuse or neglect, you must call the Division for Children, Youth and Families (DCYF) Central Intake Unit at:

(800) 894-5533 (in-state) or
603) 271-6562 (out of state)

The Intake unit is staffed 24 hours a day, including weekends and holidays.
For immediate emergencies, please call 911.
