CPI-2 is the Louisiana Department of Children and Family Services form for a mandated reporter's written report of suspected child abuse or neglect. Children's Code Article 610 D requires a written report to DCFS or law enforcement within five days of an initial oral report, and CPI-2 can also serve as the first report. It covers the victims, caretakers, suspected perpetrator, injuries and family strengths.
The mandated reporter completes and signs the whole form, entering Unknown for items they have no information on, and states their position and agency.

Five days. Louisiana Children's Code Article 610 D requires a mandated reporter who made an oral report to send a written report to DCFS or law enforcement within five days. CPI-2 is one way to meet that requirement; a follow-up report entered in the DCFS Mandated Reporter Portal is the other.
Yes. The CPI-2 text states that a mandated reporter may report suspected abuse or neglect in writing instead of making an oral report, and asks reporters who have not yet reported to send it as soon as possible. DCFS directs immediate concerns to its 24/7 Child Abuse Hotline.
