This is the reality that children face and what we have to change. If you’re preparing for the upcoming #childabusepreventionmonth - this is what needs to be addressed. So many people only focus on getting children to tell, but we need to also focus on what happens when they do. Organizations spend huge amounts of money and time on ‘prevention’ programs, but if we don’t have systems in place to protect a child when they do tell, you’re just dropping the child into an abyss of more trauma. Prevention is a child believed, protected, and defended and a perpetrator stopped from harming again. #childabuseprevention #childadvocacy #believeprotectdefend

During our sessions on violence, children share heartbreaking stories happening to them and within their families. This clearly shows the extent of the prevalance of violence in our communities. Addressing this requires a multi-faceted approach that includes prevention strategies and community engagement. Violence is global challenge that requires urgent action. Over the years, we have intensified efforts to combat violence against children by advocating for preventive and protective measures, raising awareness, providing education, creating supportive environments and working hand in hand with different stakeholders to build the capacity of communities to create a safer and better world for children. #childprotection #endviolence #communityengagement

Did you know that in FY 2021: - 1.8 million children received prevention services - 2/3 of victims received post-response services (such as family preservation, family support, or foster care) because of needs discovered during an investigation or alternative response. - 20.2% of confirmed maltreatment victims were removed from their homes because of an investigation or alternative response "Spreading the word about child abuse prevention lets your community know they can take action to strengthen families and help them thrive.

Did you know 1 in 7 children in the US have has experienced abuse or neglect? More than 600,000 children are abused in the U.S each year. An estimated 600,000 children (unique incidents) were victims of abuse and neglect in 2021, the most recent year for which there is national data. The actual number of children abused is likely underreported because of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic in 2021. April is recognized nationally as Child Abuse Prevention Month. It’s not only an opportunity to highlight the work being done to protect children from abuse and neglect, but its also an opportunity to reflect on our communities and recognize the importance of families and communities working together to prevent child abuse and neglect. #WeAreHelixHumanServices #StopChildAbuse

CASA volunteers identify resources for children and their families to help strengthen families and prevent crises before they occur.
