National Child Abuse Prevention Month

Every April, National Child Abuse Prevention Month is observed, a month to raise public awareness of child abuse and neglect, recommit efforts and resources aimed at protecting children and strengthening families, and to promote community involvement through activities that support the cause.

You have the power to create positive change in your community by stopping the abuse and neglect that occurs in your own neighborhood. Be the change that makes a difference, saves a life or ends the cycle of abuse. Children are the foundation of our society, our community and our future.
