National Child Abuse Prevention Month

April is National Child Abuse Prevention Month, a time to raise awareness and take action to protect children across the nation. The following statistics underscore the urgent need for child abuse prevention:

  • 1 in 4 girls and 1 in 13 boys experience abuse during childhood.
  • 1 billion children worldwide face violence annually.
  • In 2022, 558,899 U.S. children were confirmed victims of abuse and neglect.
  • Over 380,000 child victims received support from Children’s Advocacy Centers in 2023. 

Together, we can end child abuse in Oklahoma County. 

Thank you to our 2025 partners!
