Healthy communities, strong families,
safe children -- promote them all during
Child Abuse Prevention Month
this April!
The costs associated with child abuse are both staggering and tragic.
Children, families, and communities suffer emotionally; children live with the pain of physical maltreatment; and the billions of dollars siphoned off for responding to child abuse's long- and short-term consequences diverts funding from programs that help ensure healthy, stable homes and communities.
It's a sad fact: according to Prevent Child Abuse America's 2007 Economic Impact Study the estimated annual cost of child abuse and neglect in our country is a staggering $103.8 billion.
Turn the tide!
