Radiothon Partner - Prevent Child Abuse Minnesota

Radiothon Partner - Prevent Child Abuse Minnesota As of July 1,2020 FamilyWise is now the home of Prevent Child Abuse Minnesota (PCAMN). For more than four decades, PCAMN has been committed to strengthening families by promoting the safety, stability, and well-being of children. Each year, we serve thousands of parents and children from across Minnesota and help communities and organizations in over half of Minnesota’s 87 counties to build stronger systems for preventing child abuse and neglect. Our statewide prevention programs develop the knowledge and skills of parents, providers, and community members to create healthy, safe environments where all children can thrive: The Circle of Parents® Program develops support groups where parents can talk to one another about parenting challenges and exchange ideas and strategies that can help. Many Radiothon communities already have Circle of Parents groups. NEAR Communities and Tribal NEAR Communities programs raise awareness about the impacts of childhood adversity on health and well-being across Minnesota. As part of this program, individuals are trained to present research about childhood trauma and promote strategies for building resilience in communities. PCAMN also provides direct support to those parenting in poverty in the Twin Cities and beyond. For more information about our programs visit www.familywiseservices.org. FamilyWise, home of Prevent Child Abuse Minnesota, is a chartered affiliate of Prevent Child Abuse America (www.preventchildabuse.org).
