    Each year in April, the President of the United States issues a proclamation to announce National Child Abuse Prevention Month. Many State Governors also issue proclamations to encourage public awareness of child abuse and neglect, recommit State resources to the cause, and promote community involvement through State and local activities.

    The of the Proclaimation by our Texas Governor reads: “Therefore, I, Greg Abbott, Governor of Texas, do hereby proclaim April 2023 to be Child Abuse Prevention Month.”
