Child Abuse Prevention Month

As the home of Prevent Child Abuse Minnesota, FamilyWise is committed to taking an active role in National Child Abuse Prevention Month each April.

There are many ways that you can get involved with FamilyWise in April and contribute to the wellbeing of children and families:

Go above and beyond by signing on as a sponsor of our Fundraiser for Family Wellbeing.  Event partnerships underwrite the cost of the event so that all donations go directly to programs that strengthen families. Learn more about partnership benefits here.
Our 2025 Pinwheel for Prevention Awardees will be announced on Wednesday, April 2nd! The awards celebrate those in our communities who have gone above and beyond to create safe and supportive communities for families. In the meantime, check out our list of 2024 awardees.
Look for our 2025 Family Wellbeing Index report, which will be released on Monday, April 7th! The report shares research and stories about issues facing Minnesota families and what you can do to support families in your community. Read our previous Family Wellbeing Index Reports here.
To plant the seeds of purposeful prevention, we’ve put together a list of Every Day Actions you can take to prevent child abuse.
