The upcoming elections provide a crucial opportunity to vote for candidates at various levels of government, including local officials, state legislators, governors, members of the U.S. House and Senate, and the President of the United States. Elections impact policies that affect both current and future generations.
Elections present an opportunity to promote policies supporting children and families and make investments to support these vital initiatives. Prevent Child Abuse America (PCA America) advocates for policies and practices that strengthen families and communities, promote healthy child development, and prevent child abuse and neglect before it occurs.
