April 2025 is Child Abuse Prevention Month
April is recognized as Child Abuse Prevention Awareness Month. Pinwheels are used to symbolize childhood joy and playfulness. It symbolizes the child-like whimsy and lightheartedness of a child, a vision that all children should be able to grow up happy, healthy, and prepared to succeed in supportive families and communities.
Wear Blue Friday April 4th, 2025
Child Abuse Prevention Wear Blue Day is scheduled for April 4, 2025. Wear blue to show support for preventing child abuse, and feel free to send your photo to info@helpingservices.org.
Helping Services for Youth and Families’ Family Education and Support Program partners with families to provide support in the family’s community. The Parents as Teachers Home Visits model provides families with evidence-based information about their child’s development and what to expect at the next development stage. Family Educators provide activities for parents to do with their child to promote growth and development. Family Educators are here to help your child to be Preschool/Kindergarten ready!
