Child Abuse Awareness Month

by No Longer Silenced Movement

Even though I’m a day late, yesterday marked the first day of Child Abuse Prevention month. Every year, April is a time to bring awareness to the situation and help educate communities on signs of abuse, and steps to take.

The first thing to do is to help spread the word. This is a national month long about, but it’s seldom represented in comparison to other causes. After all, the first step in any situation is make sure individuals are aware of it.

Ways We Look To You To Help Spread The Word

• share our blogs and other social media posts on your own social media
• write your own blog discussing the event
• look to the links we’re providing below of organizations who make a huge difference in the fight against child abuse
