April is Child Abuse Awareness Month

Monday, April 1, marks the start of Child Abuse Awareness Month. Yet, it’s imperative to acknowledge that child abuse is a serious issue. It knows no bounds of race, gender, socioeconomic status, or demographic category. In 2023, Project Harmony provided assistance to over 8,000 children within our community through our response and prevention services. These cases encompassed 52% sexual abuse, 15% neglect, 11% physical abuse, and 6% witness to violence.

Throughout April, more than seventeen thousand pinwheels twirl across the Metro Area as part of Project Harmony’s Pinwheels for Prevention® campaign, illuminating the urgency of this life-threatening matter. Introduced in 2008 by Prevent Child Abuse America®, the blue pinwheel symbolizes the ideal childhood every child deserves and underscores our collective responsibility in fostering a nurturing and supportive environment for our youth.

Gene Klein, Executive Director of Project Harmony, emphasized, “April provides an opportunity for all of us, individuals and organizations alike, to take action by learning more about prevention and supporting organizations that champion children. A cause is only as robust as the community rallying behind it, and together, we can put an end to child abuse.”
