The Children's Advocacy & Protection Center sees a about 300 children a year because ONE in TEN children are sexually abused before their 18th Birthday.
Want to make a difference? There is a program called Darkness to Light- Stewards of Children that teaches 5 steps to keep children safe from sexual abuse.
If you are affiliated with a church group, book club, parent's group, school group, your co-workers- please contact Ashley at lmoretz@catawbacountync.gov or call 828-465-9296 to teach your group Darkness to Light. It is a free training.. It takes 2 hours. We are happy to facilitate during a lunch and learn. We can facilitate in the evening and on weekends because we know that children need us to advocate for them.
No one expects sexual abuse to happen to their child, sexual predators count on this!
Please Be a Ray of Hope. A Voice for Children.
