One of the most powerful things a parent can do is teach their child the difference between safe and unsafe touch and how to tell a trusted adult.

Body safety conversations don't have to be scary. They can be simple, age-appropriate, and empowering. Start the conversation today.

Awareness starts with conversations, community, and people willing to make a difference.

This October, we’re grateful to the Family Violence Prevention Workgroup at the Marion County Children’s Alliance for the work they do to promote awareness and prevention of domestic violence in our community. Thank you for gifting Kimberly’s Center a pinwheel garden as a beautiful reminder of the importance of bringing awareness to this issue.

We’re proud to stand alongside community partners who are working to create safer, healthier environments for children and families.

Every child deserves the chance to heal.

Our specialized therapists work with children who have experienced abuse, helping them understand that what happened was never their fault, rebuilding their confidence, and restoring their hope for the future.
Healing takes time. It takes support. And it takes care from people who understand.

That's what we provide every day, for every child who walks through our doors.

Our Prevention Team is back in the classroom!

The team recently visited Sunrise Elementary and Osceola Middle School to connect with students and provide the evidence-based Child Safety Matters curriculum, focused on helping children recognize unsafe situations, understand healthy boundaries and know that they can speak up when something doesn’t feel right.

We’re looking forward to another school year of bringing prevention education directly to students and helping build safer communities, one classroom at a time.
