For more than a decade, Children’s Trust of South Carolina has hosted the Building Hope for Children Conference, a statewide biannual two-day event focused on child abuse and neglect prevention. But this year was different.
Nearly 450 attendees, representing 36 counties and more than 100 organizations, came together in person for the first time in three years on August 24-25 at the Hyatt Regency in Greenville, South Carolina. Child-serving professionals, home visitors and prevention advocates connected, shared knowledge, and most importantly, practiced self-care together.
