Child Abuse Prevention Advocacy

Mission Statement

Stopping child abuse and saving kids who have been abused by their parents both mentally and physically.

Why This Matters to Me

I found this very important to me because I find it so terrible and cruel to know lots of kids are abused mentally AND physically by their own parents! So many kids have suffered from this, and many have PTSD because of this. I want to help put a stop to these ruthless actions.
