NATIONAL CHILD ABUSE PREVENTION MONTH 2025
April 3, 2025
April has been proclaimed NATIONAL CHILD ABUSE PREVENTION MONTH by President Donald J.Trump.
This initiative originates from 1983 when President Ronald Reagan stressed the necessity of raising awareness among families and general population about all abuses committed on children. The Office on Child Abuse and Neglect continued to encourage and promote prevention on a multidisciplinary basis.
President Donald J. Trump has also followed this path. He particularly underlined the importance of supporting the population through a good understanding of the child's requirements in terms of physical and psychological integrity, and to give a total support for the efforts of professionals working in this area. This piece of legislation is crucial because it takes into account the fragility and extreme vulnerability of Child and Youth, which unfortunately make it possible for offences against minors to be committed.
