Is it true that in the state of Pennsylvania it is a law (and can be enforced by the dept of child welfare) that parents must have safety locks on firearms in the home.

The Department of Welfare and Specifically Child and Youth do NOT enforce laws. They leave that to the police.
Now Child and Youth may find that a child is dependent if they live in a house where the children have ready access to guns that do not have trigger locks.
So you need to secure the guns you have in either a gun safe, Or you can use trigger locks which are readily available and often at no charge.
Who cares what the law is? If it might save the life of your child or that of a playmate why not secure your guns?
