“Teaching the kids in our club that it is ‘never too late to tell’ stopped abuse that had gone on for over a year! Kidpower’s safety lessons helped this child have the confidence and courage to tell his parents and get the help he needs – and has also led to other kids being protected from this man’s predatory behavior.”

Here are seven child abuse prevention actions each of us can take this month that will make a difference.
