Child Protective Services
Indiana's Child Protective Services (CPS), protects Indiana's children from further abuse or neglect and prevents, remedies, or assists in solving problems that may result in abuse, neglect, exploitation, or delinquency of children. The Family Preservation Program carries out the agency's goals to prevent unnecessary separation from their families by identifying family problems and assisting families in resolving them. Services offered to families include education, counseling, visitation and more.
CPS operates a toll-free hotline (1-800-800-5556) for people to call and report suspected cases of child abuse or neglect. CPS receives and initiates investigations of child maltreatment on a 24-hour basis.
