Moline, IL \u2013 The Child Abuse Council is celebrating National Child Abuse Prevention Month during the month of April to promote the idea that, when all children have the great childhoods they deserve, the citizens of the Quad Cities will have a more prosperous future. National Child Abuse Prevention Month is a time when communities nationwide recognize the role everyone plays in preventing child abuse.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Current research shows that children who experience abuse, neglect or other traumatic events are at greater risk for poor health, learning and behavior outcomes. A survey of Iowa adults found that, compared to adults with no traumatic experiences, those who experienced four or more adverse events as children (14 percent) were more than twice as likely to rate their health poorly, five times more likely to be diagnosed with clinical depression, four times more likely to have lung disease and nearly three times more likely to have heart disease.<\/span><\/p>

The Child Abuse Council works to prevent child abuse by helping caregivers manage stress, strengthen connections, learn parenting skills and access resources so that they can create stable and healthy environments for their children. Through programs focused on treatment, education, and prevention, families receive support and resources each year.<\/span><\/p>\n
