A quick warning: this week we are tackling a sensitive and potentially triggering topic: child abuse.
Children are suffering from a hidden epidemic of abuse and neglect. According to the National Children’s Alliance, nearly 700,000 children are abused each year in the United States, and a child abuse report is made every ten seconds.
This week we chat with Tanisha Leal, the Host Family Manager at Saint Luke’s Crittenton Children’s Centerabout child abuse and neglect, what parents and loved ones can do to help prevent child abuse, and how Crittenton Children’s Center’s foster care program helps families heal.
