On this episode of the Teaming Against Trauma podcast our host, Brooke Anderson, shares about prevention strategies for you to prepare your children to live the safest and healthiest lives possible. Prevention is the ultimate goal when it comes to child abuse. The knowledge Brooke shares will help parents, caregivers, aunts, uncles, teachers, and anyone who interacts with children to prepare well for preventing abuse and harm. While it is our responsibility as adults to protect children, we can do that by sharing knowledge with them, but first we must equip ourselves. Learn more about what DCAC is doing to equip our community during Child Abuse Prevention (CAP) Month this April and how you can join us!
