What if prevention looked like care from the very beginning?
This Child Abuse Prevention Month, we’re reminded that healing starts with being seen, understood, and supported.
Through our Assessment & Life Skills Center, children and teens entering foster care are welcomed into a space that feels safe and familiar. Here, they receive thoughtful assessments and hands-on life skills through the Safe Children Coalition that help them build confidence, stability, and hope.
Because prevention isn’t just about stopping harm.
It’s about creating the conditions for healing. 💙
During the Giving Challenge, April 15-16, 2026; Noon-Noon, you can help make this care possible. Donations up to $100 are matched by The Patterson Foundation.
