Peggy Ford, Executive Director of Children's Place, Child Abuse Prevention Month
2026-04-06 12:30 - 13:30
During April, we recognize National Child Abuse Prevention Month (NCAPM) and the importance of communities working together to support and strengthen families and prevent child maltreatment. Throughout the year, communities are encouraged to increase awareness about child and family well-being and work together to implement effective strategies that support families and prevent child abuse and neglect.
NCAPM activities are implemented in partnership with our National Child Abuse Prevention Partners, the Federal Inter-Agency Work Group on Child Abuse and Neglect, and families with lived expertise.
NCAPM and other Federal child abuse-related activities are authorized by the Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act (CAPTA). CAPTA provides funding to States to support the prevention, assessment, investigation, prosecution, and treatment of child abuse and neglect. It also provides grants to public agencies and nonprofit organizations, including American Indian/Alaska Native Tribes and Tribal organizations, for demonstration programs and projects. About CAPTA: A Legislative History provides more information about this important legislation.
