Every April we join organizations across the nation in recognizing Child Abuse Prevention Month. Follow along and educate yourself as we strive to create healthier environments for children, keep them safe from abuse, and give them the brightest futures possible.
There are a lot of great resources available in Alaska for child abuse prevention, including Catholic Community Service! Our SAFE Child Advocacy Center is here to answer any questions you might have about reporting, recognizing the signs of abuse, or resources available to families seeking healing and justice.
