Our team had the honor of accepting the Child Abuse Prevention Month proclamation from the Palm Beach County Board of County Commissioners.
We are deeply grateful for the recognition of this important cause and for the opportunity to serve the children and families of our community. A heartfelt thank you to Matt Spritz for so beautifully capturing the heart behind this proclamation:
"Center for Child Counseling directly serves over 7,000 children in Palm Beach County each year and touches thousands more beyond that. This proclamation recognizes CFCC's leading role in providing essential mental health services to children who have been victims of horrible trauma and abuse in our community, and the critical role these services play in prevention, early intervention, and, ultimately, recovery and resilience."

April is Child Sexual Abuse Prevention Month. Child sexual abuse is preventable, and we all have a role to play.
Adults are responsible for creating safe, stable, and nurturing environments where children can thrive. That starts with awareness, education, and action.
BeKidSafe offers a trusted resource hub for parents, caregivers, teachers, and professionals to feel more confident and equipped to support the children in their lives.
