What We Do
Raise Awareness
We drive community awareness about child abuse prevention through education, outreach, and public engagement — empowering individuals and organizations to be part of the solution.
Educate & Support
We equip families and caregivers with practical tools, trusted information, and supportive resources to strengthen relationships, build resilience, and prevent abuse before it happens.
Advocate for Change
We champion family-centered policies and prevention strategies at the state and national levels, working with partners and policymakers to promote long-term safety, well-being, and equity for Rhode Island children and families.
Our Values
Prevention First
Creating supportive environments that reduce risk and build protective factors.
Family-Centered
Strengthening parental capacity and family well-being matters as much as preventing harm.
Community Collaboration
Working with partners to expand impact and reach across the state.
