We can talk with you about your problems, in private. And we will
keep you safe.
When adults hurt children and youth it's wrong. Sometimes it is
called abuse. There are many different kinds of abuse. Child abuse
is wrong.
There are many things that we can do to help make things better
for you, and keep you safe. Hitting, pushing and yelling can all
be abuse. Neglecting, refusing to support and not providing appropriate
food and shelter can all be abuse. Abusing kids is wrong. It is
never your fault.
If you think you're a victim of abuse or you think that a friend
is being abused - we can help. If you are hurt or afraid, we are
here to help you. You can call us anytime-- day or night, to talk
