Child Abuse Prevention Program

Child Abuse Prevention Program

I would like to take a moment of everyone’s valuable time and introduce an organization I have been supporting since 2001. The Child Abuse Prevention Program. These are some really outstanding people who visit schools and teach children about the dangers of sexual abuse. They teach children about the dangers of online predators and pedophiles.
While I dedicate much of my writing to a healthy lifestyle. One thing is for sure, a child who is abused will abuse themselves. Whether it be with food, drugs or sexual promiscuity or worse, suicide. A healthy lifestyle is fostered when our children are young. We must protect our children.
Please join me in supporting the Child Abuse Prevention Program.
