We are working year-round towards child abuse prevention, but when a child is devastated by abuse, we are here to provide comprehensive services to the child and their non-offending family members.
April 2023 - Each April, during Child Abuse Prevention Month, we recognize the importance of communities working together to help prevent child abuse. This April marks the 20th year as an organization that we have recognized Child Abuse Prevention Month and we want to thank you for joining us!
Every small action can help families thrive. Together, through purposeful action, we can promote the safety and well-being of children in our community.
As parents and caregivers, something always on our mind is keeping our children safe. We often think of the obvious things such as making sure they are properly buckled in a car or wearing a helmet when riding a bike, but another way we can help make sure children are safe is something we might not always thing about – teaching boundaries. It is important that children also understand behaviors from others that are appropriate and inappropriate.
Helping children understand the difference between a secret and a surprise can be an important part of helping create a safe environment.
Human Trafficking can happen in any community and victims can be any race, range in age, and be any gender. Traffickers often use violence, manipulation, and false promises of jobs, money, or a romantic relationship on victims.
Human Trafficking is the use of force, fraud and coercion to obtain labor or commercial sex acts. Millions of men, women, and children are trafficking worldwide and in the United States.
