We have dedicated a section of our website to bring forth the conversation about child abuse, as our mission is to raise awareness about and prevent Domestic Violence. We would be remiss if we didn’t discuss child abuse and provide resources for child care, protective services and education on this very relevant topic.
Below are links to educational resources on child abuse. We also have dedicated pages to specific learning modules. Please hover over the menu to access these.
