School’s out & summer is in session ☀️

With school out and routines changing, children may have less access to the trusted adults, structure, and support systems they rely on throughout the year. That’s why staying connected, aware, and engaged matters more than ever.

Abuse isn’t easy to talk about—but silence only protects the problem.
Conversations create awareness. Awareness creates prevention.
