Couick, the president and CEO of The Electric Cooperatives of S.C., Inc., the statewide association of consumer-owned electric utilities, noted how the hectic demands of daily life and the changing dynamics of family units can leave parents and caregivers feeling isolated and unsupported, which can lead to abuse and neglect.
He wrote how Children’s Trust helps equip families with ways to better navigate tough times in a more resilient fashion, thanks to proven prevention programs like home visiting and the Strengthening Families Program.
