My clients are excited and eager to learn about what to expect during pregnancy and after their babies are born. They even share what they learn with other pregnant women. Research proves this program works, and I can see its impact during each visit.

Today’s Children Tomorrow’s Future: Leadership Awards Luncheon
Tiki Barber, Honorary Chair/Guest Speaker
Every child deserves a healthy, nurturing childhood and the opportunity to grow up to be a caring, contributing adult. Unfortunately, the toxic stress of child abuse and neglect can damage the developing architecture of a child’s brain. Abuse harms more than just the individual child’s chances for success — it harms a community’s economic prosperity and quality of life. But, there’s great news: child abuse is preventable!
Prevent Child Abuse North Carolina is the only statewide nonprofit in North Carolina dedicated to the prevention of child abuse and neglect in all forms. Through evidence-based family strengthening programs, public and professional education, leadership and advocacy, we work to ensure that every North Carolina parent and child can thrive.
Join us today in our work to give every parent, child and community a healthy, successful future!
