During this month of April, as Child Abuse Prevention Month, it’s important to look within our own families to understand what we are doing to keep our kids safe.

Prevention starts with hard conversations.

We'd all agree, there’s more than just one way to approach parenting. That includes educating our kids about abuse. Those of us who do this work professionally understand some parents believe in open discussions with their children about sexual misconduct, while others avoid direct conversations about it. At the same time, many caregivers struggle with what is age appropriate and which conversations are helpful when. CARE House is here to help you navigate tough but necessary conversations about child abuse.
