Prevent Child Abuse America

Prevent Child Abuse America (PCA America) is dedicated to ensuring the healthy development of all children and families across the nation. Founded in 1972 in Chicago, PCA America is a leader in advancing primary prevention strategies that stop child abuse and neglect before it ever occurs. Through a robust network of chapters in all 50 states and more than 625 Healthy Families America sites across the United States and territories, PCAA works tirelessly to build healthier, stronger communities. We advocate for national policies and frameworks that prioritize children and families while championing evidence-based practices that empower parents to be partners in prevention. We’re always looking to build new partnerships with individuals, organizations, and communities who share our vision for a world where every child can thrive.
