Child Abuse Prevention Programs work because they give parents and children practical help early, so problems like stress, isolation, and unsafe situations don’t spiral into abuse.
These are the Child Abuse Prevention Programs we currently offer in our community:
• Training with Impact: A prevention training for staff, partners, and community collaborators to build a stronger referral network for families so together we can reduce the risk of child abuse and neglect.
• Self-Esteem Building Workshop: This workshop promotes self-esteem and resilience among young readers. Through June 2026, our Prevention Team will be touring all seven branches of the Newark Public Library, offering this empowering program to the public.
• Community-based Caregiver Training: A 5-week program, offering caregivers tools and support to strengthen family bonds and cope with everyday challenges.
• Know and Tell Trainings: We train caregivers and all adults to know the signs of child abuse, that we’re all mandated reporters in NJ, and when to make that call to report. We answer questions like these: Will I be identified if I call it in? Do I need proof to call in suspected child abuse or neglect?
If you'd like us to bring these programs to your agency or organization, email Chris Ann, Director of Prevention Services at
