Area Agencies Support Child Abuse Prevention Month in April
Southeastern Idaho Public Health Department
This April, area agencies unite for National Child Abuse Prevention (CAP) Month, championing the theme: “Powered by Hope, Strengthened by Prevention.”
At the heart of this campaign is a world where all children and families are living a purposeful and happy life with hope for the future. To achieve this vision, we must prioritize prevention—ensuring that families have the resources, support, and connections they need before challenges become crises.
“Every child deserves the opportunity to thrive, and every family deserves the support to build a strong foundation,” said Tracy Reed, Southeastern Idaho Public Health’s Community Health Director. “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.”
In Caribou County, the Southeastern Idaho Public Health Department is located at 55 E 1st St S in Soda Springs, next to the County Extension Office in the Annex building. During daytime hours, the department can be reached at 208-547-4375 with any questions about Child Abuse Prevention month or other issues. More information about events during the month of April in Caribou County will be printed when such information is available.
