"Children don't come with instructions. Yet parents are expected to know how to do this important and difficult job without training or education! Preventing child abuse and neglect is really about promoting positive parenting through education and support...on many levels. All of us can play a role in building strong families." - Johanna Schuchert, PCAV Executive Director
