National Context
The month of April is known as child abuse prevention month. The month is focus on “Strong, nurturing communities that are supportive of families can get involved and play a role in preventing child abuse and neglect and promoting child and family well-being”, as to let the awareness out there in the public. Also, the children's bureau also have different Programs to take care of this mishap like reports as like the Children Welfare states“State programs, Home visiting, Early Childhood and Child, Care Services, Parent education, Parent support groups, Respite care, Family resource centers, and School-based programs”. Another thing is that Day Cares report to the state or also the child support services if they see any abuse, mental issue, or child is different state of mind.
My fire project is different from other issues because I have Child Maltreatment and no one would want to talk about these different issues. These issues are really harsh to some people and tough to talk about especially if that person has a child and also went through the same thing as a youth. Also, to consider most of the people that are doing there fire project is working on doing something they think is right or they have to do it but in the other hand mine is to put awareness and want the people to know what the youth and little babies are going through. Other people might just be doing one part of the child maltreatment but I am talking about everything in physical, emotional, and sexual. |
