About Child Abuse

Child abuse has reached epidemic proportions in the United States, Texas and Collin County. It is a crime against the most vulnerable among us and too often goes unreported. It is relentlessly democratic victimizing children from all socioeconomic groups, religions, ethnicities, genders and age groups (the law defines a child as under the age of 18 years). Prevent Child Abuse America reports that each year the (direct and indirect) cost of child abuse and neglect in the United States is in excess of $94billion.
