Join us in putting a stop to child abuse. Help us speak up for the small voices that are not being heard. Together, we can raise awareness and help promote safe, healthy, and happy families. Advocate for children and promote healthy parenting because Protecting Children is Everyone's Job.
As adults, we can raise awareness of child abuse. What does abuse look like through the eyes of a child and what are the consequences? Watch this series of short videos to get an inside look of how abuse affects the lives of our children.
