National Council on Child Abuse and Family Violence - NCCAFV

01/24/2021

We are open and working from our homes - the incidents of family violence are increasing as the corona pandemic continues, with so many people having no choice but to be in close quarters with those with whom they may be vulnerable.

January is the month of more child abuse reports every year than in any other month of the year. With the month almost ending, there are reports of increased child abuse and domestic family violence (child abuse, spouse/partner abuse, elder abuse) under the pandemic's lockdown conditions.

If you know anyone who is vulnerable to violence in their home, take a moment to check in with them by phone or text or email to assure them by offering to be helpful in any way they think will be helpful, including offering to check in with them again ONLY if your further contact will not add to their vulnerability.

Thank you for any help you can give them and thank you for your critical financial support as we continue to work during this difficult time.

The National Council on Child Abuse and Family Violence (NCCAFV) and its American Campaign provide prevention services.

As we are now entered into 2021. I need to post a brief word about the National Council and its American Campaign for Prevention of Family Violence i.e. child abuse and neglect, spouse/partner abuse (domestic violence) and elder abuse and neglect within families:

After serving as an unpaid volunteer and leader of this income tax exempt organization for 36 years, I can say that this coronavirus pandemic has become the greatest challenge in all those years to our organization's financial survival.

We carry on the work every day, only as unpaid volunteers can individually, and we are truly grateful for your encouraging support as you are able and inclined to give while perhaps experiencing your own personal financial challenges.

I have a sense of certainty that our current circumstances are ultimately in God's hands. None of us know what the future holds, but we can know Who holds the future. God bless you in this new year with every blessing of health and happiness!
