Positive Child Alliance Georgia, formerly known as Prevent Child Abuse Georgia and Prevent Child Abuse America (PCA America) have united to recognize National Child Abuse Prevention (CAP) Month by embracing the theme “Powered by Hope, Strengthened by Prevention.”
“Every child deserves the opportunity to thrive, and every family deserves the support to build a strong foundation,” said PCA Georgia Executive Director Jennifer Stein. “Hope fuels resilience, and prevention provides the tools to create lasting change. This April, we celebrate the power of prevention and the communities that make it possible.”

Through evidencebased programs, PCA Georgia empowers prevention professionals and families with critical resources – helping them navigate challenges such as economic hardship, childcare access, and health concerns. By investing in preventive solutions, we lay the groundwork for a healthier, more hopeful future for all children.
