Child Abuse Prevention Month 2023

April 1, 2023 - May 1, 2023

WHAT IS CHILD ABUSE PREVENTION MONTH

Since 1983, April has been designated as Child Abuse Prevention Month. Each April, communities are encouraged to increase awareness about child and family well-being, and work together to implement effective strategies that support families and prevent child abuse and neglect.

HOW CAN I GET INVOLVED?

The CPCA has events and ways that you can participate throughout the month of April in order to raise awareness and help our mission to end child abuse in the Hudson Valley.

CALENDAR

EVERY TUESDAY

Listen to Q92

Every Tuesday, tune in to hear CPCA staff and Q92 discuss everyday parenting tips anyone can use to stay better connected with their children and teens.

APRIL 14

#GoBlueHV

Let’s turn the Hudson Valley blue on April 14th! Sport your favorite blue outfit (shirt, pants, hat, shoes, etc.) and tag us on Facebook or Instagram using the hashtag #GoBlueHV.

APRIL 16–22

Restaurant Week for Child Abuse Prevention

Help protect children when you dine in or take out. Grab a meal from our partnering restaurants and a portion of your sales will be donated back to The CPCA. Tag us on Facebook or Instagram and use the hashtag #CPCARestaurantWeek to let us know where you’ve been!

ALL MONTH

Display A Pinwheel

Pinwheels have been used a symbol for child abuse prevention. A pinwheel connotes playfulness, joy, and childhood. It has come to serve as a physical reminder of the great childhoods we want for all children. And as a symbol, the cyclical nature of the pinwheel calls to mind the positive cycles of love and support we want to help families create.

THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS
