LISTEN TO THE SHOW
ABOUT THIS SHOW
Through the discussion of these components, parents will gain a greater understanding for situations that create opportunities for abuse and learn ways to reduce those factors. Additionally, parents will learn strategies for creating a supportive environment for talking with their children about abuse.
Resources:
RAINN
In Georgia, Prevent Child Abuse Georgia has a great helpline for parents, caregivers and concerned adults to call and ask questions about anything related to abuse, child development, parenting and how to receive resources locally. 1-800-CHILDREN On a national level, I would suggest contacting RAINN, 1-800-656-HOPE or www.rainn.org
