About American SPCC
American Society for the Positive Care of Children was founded in 2011 as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit charitable organization from the strong desire of one caring individual to make a difference in the lives of abused children in America.
We believe that childhood should be fun for kids. A time to learn, be nurtured, and loved. Childhood shouldn’t hurt, but the harsh reality is that for many American kids, childhood not only hurts, but is often fatal. Millions of American children experience devastating childhoods, with long-term debilitating effects. In America, children are being abused and dying every day. Child abuse, neglect, exploitation, and bullying are at epidemic levels in the United States.
Every day at American SPCC, we ask the question, what can we do to have a positive impact on the lives of children today, tomorrow, and in the future?
American SPCC is devoted to promoting social change to end abuse, leading to a safer, healthier, and happier world for children. Through our advocacy, awareness, positive parenting, anti-bullying, and social media campaigns, we advocate for American children and raise public awareness to help end child abuse in all forms. Together with our community of supporters, we give a voice to the 'voiceless’ - the abused, neglected, bullied, and marginalized children of America.
There’s NO excuse for child abuse! If you believe children don’t deserve to be abused or bullied, join us, as we fight against the epidemic of child maltreatment, and bullying in America.
Social Impact * End Child Abuse * Improve Children’s Lives!
