Reporting

If you see something, say something – speak up. All players and parents of Lakes Volleyball are encouraged to report anything you know or suspect might be sexual abuse to any Board member or coach of Lakes Volleyball.

Lakes Board members and coaches are required to report suspected child abuse, including sexual abuse to law enforcement, within 24 hours. Note: it is not the responsibility of Lakes to investigate a report of possible sexual abuse. Our duty, by Law, is to report any  suspicions to the proper authorities immediately.
