Raising awareness is a critical first step in preventing child abuse and neglect. When we take action to help families thrive, children will be safe and have the opportunity to grow up healthy and strong. Join us by planting the seeds and bringing sunlight into the lives of our state’s children and families. Our CAP Month webpage is filled with information and resources to get things started in your community: the 2021 toolkit, a social media press kit to share prevention messages, a pledge for prevention, a sample proclamation and press release, an advocacy flyer, Helping Kids Grow booklets in English and Spanish, and much more.
