If there is a new allegation of sexual abuse or high risk physical abuse or neglect, the case will be assigned to the Investigative Pathway. If the intake alleges low - moderate neglect or minor physical abuse, the FAR caseworker will reassess safety to determine if the case is still appropriate for FAR. New allegations of child abuse and neglect require initial face to face contact with children according to current policy. All CA staff are mandated reporters and are required to call intake when they suspect child abuse and neglect.
