April is Child Abuse Prevention month: This annual observance is dedicated to raising awareness and preventing child abuse. One in four children have experienced abuse or neglect at some point in their lives. Children who experience abuse or neglect can suffer from physical, psychological, and behavioral issues. A National Institute of Justice Study found that abused or neglected children are 59% more likely to be arrested as a juvenile, 28% more likely to be arrested as an adult, and 30% more likely to commit a violent crime. Individuals and parishes are encouraged to rededicate themselves to being supportive of families, play an active role in preventing child abuse and neglect, and promoting child and family well-being. All are invited to attend the Child Abuse Prevention Workshop and Mass to be held at St. James Church, Solana Beach on April 2. Information on local support resources will be available at the event. See insert for more details. Please keep all victim/survivors of abuse in your prayers this month, especially those abused as children.
