OP Make the call you can remain anonymous just tell them of your concerns that this young girl is going to this home after school she does not belong to them and she stays overnight and that there has in the past been a awkward situation involving the 20 yr old in the past and you are concerned about her safety. That's all there is to it.
I did CPS in the State of VA for The City of Newport News.
