Wear a blue ribbon in April
and do everything you can
to prevent child abuse

grandmother
of seven, is
president of
Angels Against
Abuse, Inc.,
a 501(c)(3)
not-for-profit
organization.
pril is National Child Abuse
Prevention Month, and communities
and agencies across
the country are stepping up
their efforts to raise awareness
about child neglect and abuse.
Grandparents often come forward
to provide support for the
more than 3.5 million children
reported in the U.S. each year
as victims of abuse or neglect.
But all of us can do more.
Angels Against Abuse, Inc.,
based in St. Petersburg, Florida,
is making a real difference
in the lives of abused children.
Countless children and families
each year fail to receive
help readily available to them
because of a confusing web

in
of services
and red tape.
Angels Against
Abuse provides
support, monetarily
and through
hands-on volunteer hours,
to children who are removed
from an abusive situation and
to families who are at risk of
losing their children because of
such situations.
The Angels are known as the
quick responders in the community
and have the proven
ability to make it happen without
delay when it comes to a
child’s needs. We accomplish
this through our Angels Helping
Hands Program.
