PARSIPPANY — Freeholder Thomas Mastrangelo presented a proclamation from the Morris County Freeholders to Kiwanis Club of Greater Parsippany for their successful work on the “National Child Abuse Prevention Program” campaign.
Committee Chair Karen DeChristopher and members Joyce Garrow, Barbara Lysenko and Carol Tiesi were on hand to accept the proclamation with Kiwanis President Connie Keller.
National Child Abuse Prevention Month is a time to acknowledge the importance of families and communities working together to prevent child abuse and neglect, and to promote the social and emotional well-being of children and families. During the month of April and throughout the year, communities are encouraged to share child abuse and neglect prevention awareness strategies and activities and promote prevention across the country. In recognition of the 40th anniversary of the Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act, we have designed a historical timeline of significant moments in child abuse prevention in the United States.
