This Month: PREVENT CHILD ABUSE AMERICA

PREVENT CHILD ABUSE AMERICA

As written on their website:

For more than five decades, Prevent Child Abuse America has invested in innovative programs, research and strategies aimed at increasing the focus on primary prevention and family support services. The Prevent Child Abuse America (PCA America) nationwide state chapter network has been around since 1976, with the very first chapter opened in Kansas. Since then, they’ve grown considerably to 46 states and the District of Columbia. Chapters range from independent 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations to agencies that operate under umbrella organizations, such as government departments, hospitals, and universities. Chapters contribute invaluably to this organization's comprehensive prevention efforts, providing state-level expertise and resources -- ultimately amplifying their work widely in communities nationwide. They work in tandem with a wide array of community partners to deliver valuable day-to-day prevention work, including the formulation of innovative strategies to address issues such as child sexual abuse, raising awareness for the prevention of child abuse and neglect, and advocating with state and local governments to ensure that there is funding available for programs designed to benefit children and families.

The Prevent Child Abuse America state chapter network employs a wide range of innovative strategies, on numerous fronts, to lead nationwide efforts that help prevent child abuse and neglect before it happens.

PREVENT CHILD ABUSE AMERICA

LEADERSHIP IN PREVENTION: Chapters provide leadership in promoting and delivering effective prevention programs, such as Connections Matter and Circle of Parents. They also help facilitate community-level networking and learning opportunities.

ADVOCACY: Chapters support advocacy, coalition building, and engage with policymakers and elected representatives at the local and state levels.

PUBLIC AWARENESS AND ENGAGEMENT: Chapters raise public awareness and engagement, localizing national campaigns, such as National Child Abuse Prevention Month (April) and Pinwheels for Prevention®, and maintaining a consistent brand identity and messaging across the nation.

PREVENT CHILD ABUSE AMERICA

RESEARCH: Chapter affinity groups publish and disseminate valuable research on child abuse and neglect prevention topics such as adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and paid family leave.

HEALTHY FAMILIES AMERICA (HFA): Some state chapters also administer Healthy Families America, their signature evidence-based home visiting program.

CHAPTER NETWORK EXECUTIVE COUNCIL(CNEC): CNEC is a leadership council of six elected chapter Executive Directors who serve as a liaison between PCA America, its board and staff, and the chapter network. In partnership with PCA America, CNEC focuses on priorities that strengthen the prevention work of the chapter network. To learn more about CNEC, please contact CNEC Chair and Executive Director of PCA Oregon, Nicole Cunningham.
