Next month is Child Abuse Prevention Month and this morning we are advocating and raising awareness with Dr. Angie White from the Bexar County Child Welfare Board. Angie is also the president and CEO of CASA, Child Advocates San Antonio.
The Child Welfare Board is here to educate, support, and fill gaps when it comes to child abuse. There will be some upcoming events to bring the community together in support of protecting children and reducing child abuse.
Often times if a child is taken from a home, they are placed in the back of a police car without any support, so ASAP Bags are bags that give children something to do and find comfort while they are in that situation. Things like blankets, fidget toys, coloring pages, and more.
