[Mo-facs] [APRIL] Child Abuse & Neglect Prevention and Awareness Month toolkit

[Carla Sandwell]

Here is a toolkit available from our state’s Children’s Trust Fund and
Missouri KidsFirst that can help plan for events surrounding Child Abuse
Prevention Month. In families who currently care for a child with special
needs, there is a high level of stress associated and recognizing this could
prevent CAN for either the child or siblings. 

 

Thanks for all that you do to reduce child abuse & neglect,

 

~Carla

w.ctf4kids.org/photos/blog_images/blue_ribbon_pin_tn.jpgIt is the
responsibility of each individual to prevent child abuse and neglect.  As a
result, April is annually designated as Child Abuse Prevention Month. This
year’s theme, Strong Families-Safe Kids, recognizes that the most important
thing we can do to prevent child abuse is to support families. Prevention
efforts are the best hope for eliminating child abuse in Missouri.

HYPERLINK "http://kidsfirst.typepad.com/"Missouri KidsFirst, in partnership
with the Children’s Trust Fund, has developed a HYPERLINK
"http://kidsfirst.typepad.com/kidsfirst/CAPMRegistration.html"web-based
child abuse prevention packet for individuals and communities to modify and
use to support local child abuse prevention efforts. This packet is designed
to help improve the safety and well being of children by offering parenting
tips and ways to discuss how to bring communities together to prevent the
abuse and neglect of Missouri’s children.  The toolkit may also be accessed
by clicking the April is Child Abuse Prevention Month button on the CTF
homepage.
