Local Prevent Child Abuse Councils
PCA Georgia supports over 25 local councils throughout the state of Georgia that are dedicated to preventing child abuse and neglect in all forms. Many provide direct services and act as prevention advocates in their community during the month of April and year round. Connect to a council near you to participate in CAP Month activities and learn more about prevention in your community.
If your organization is interested in learning more about becoming a local council, please email PreventChildAbuseGA@gsu.edu
