Both the Newton and Walton County District Attorney's Offices recently wore blue for Nation Child Abuse Prevention Month. There is a National push each April to raise awareness for the prevention of child abuse. Sadly, our offices often deal with child abuse after it occurs. But we, of course, can hope that future child abuse is prevented.
National Child Abuse Prevention Month recognizes the importance of families and communities working together to prevent child abuse and neglect. Prevention services and supports developed by this collaboration can help to protect children and strengthen families.
