Mandated Reporting

As a Promise Fellow, you are a mandated reporter in the state of Minnesota. You will be working with 30 or more young people at your host site, and it is important to know what constitutes abuse and how to report abuse if it happens. You will need to take the YIPA training below and pass the mandated reporting quiz in order to verify that you know what constitutes student maltreatment and how you should respond in cases of student maltreatment.

Step 1: Watch the YIPA Webinar on Mandated Reporting. Click on the "How to Navigate Mandated Reporting Image" below (instructions on registering below)

Step 2: Take the short quiz that is embedded below (at the bottom). You will need to get 100% on this quiz in the first two weeks of service. The quiz can be taken multiple times.

If you are new, the first step is creating a YIPA account. After clicking the link you will be brought to the following page. Click "Register now".

Because you are part of the Alliance, you have access to YIPA trainings for free! This is a great resource to return to throughout the year for training hours. To register you will need to fill out all of the required boxes. Under 'Organization' write "Minnesota Alliance With Youth" and before 'check out' click "$0.00 YIPA Member" to use this resource for free.

After submitting this information you will receive an email from YIPA confirming your registration with the link to view the training. If you have any problems, please reach out to the Promise Fellows Leaders or Trainers. You may also use the following links as additional resources as needed.
