The Need in Our Community
Each day in Hillsborough County, four children will be removed from their family homes due to child abuse and neglect, and one of those will be an infant.
April is Child Abuse Prevention Month – and we need your help to provide the immediate and long-term support families need to prevent child abuse and neglect and provide a healthy environment for child development.
Our Campaign & Event
Throughout April 2023, this special campaign will raise critical funds and awareness for our mission, while providing you as a supporter with unique opportunities for recognition and participation. Follow along on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or our e-mail list.
On April 27th, we will cap off the month with an in-person celebration providing an interactive opportunity to meet our staff and learn about Champions, and presenting the 2023 Cornelia Corbett Child Advocate Award (details coming soon).
