Prevent Child Abuse Alabama

The Children’s Trust Fund is the Alabama chapter for Prevent Child Abuse America which was established        May 18, 2007.  The Children’s Trust Fund and Prevent Child Abuse America share the common mission to prevent child abuse and neglect before it occurs.  PCA Alabama and the Children’s Trust Fund also share the same focus on the prevention of child abuse and neglect in many of the activities they support and implement –

• Parenting education and support

• Public/community awareness

• Home visitation

• Mentoring

• School based programming

• After-school activities

• Respite care

• Child Abuse Prevention Month activities

In prevention and early intervention services, collaboration is essential to maximize effective use of resources and eliminating duplication of efforts.  The collaboration with the Children’s Trust Fund provides PCA Alabama with a means to share information on educational initiatives and community involvement to bring increased awareness to the prevention of child abuse and neglect for the children in Alabama.
