#WeBelieveInHumanKindness
Excerpt of article below.
"This month, Children’s Advocacy Network is establishing a cornerstone that will guide our actions and message through February and March– “We Believe in Human Kindness.”**
The message around this manifesto is very relevant in our goal of preventing child abuse and neglect. Building resilience. Improving protective factors. Doing good and taking action. These are aspects we share when we are encouraging our community to help create stronger families and provide support for those who need it! It encourages us to spread hope through kindness. Hope through CHOOSING to #BeTheChange." Find full article here.
This month we are focusing on information that educates our community on the risks and realities associated with trafficking, particularly online safety for our youth and valuable information sharing for caregivers as well as adults who work with children regularly.
Let's protect our children. One way to start is by having conversations about online safety!
