Liability Overview
Liability Considerations in Des Moines
Iowa's universal mandatory reporting law requires ALL adults — not just designated professionals — to report suspected child abuse. This makes Iowa one of the strongest states for claims against the Church's help line system, which directed leaders not to report. Iowa's SOL extends to age 33, and Des Moines has multiple active LDS wards.
