National Child Abuse Prevention Month
Children from the infant room at the General Thomas R. Mikolajcik Child Development Center at Joint Base Charleston, S.C., stroll along in a parade April 30, 2015 in recognition of National Child Abuse Prevention Month. The parade began at the front of the CDC and continued down Miller Avenue into base housing and back. National Child Abuse Prevention Month occurs every year during the month of April and is a time to acknowledge the importance of families and communities working together to prevent child abuse and neglect, and to promote the social and emotional well-being of children and families.
