All right. Four B, all right. That's the proclaim April twenty twenty five child abuse prevention month. Children are precious and deserve to grow up in a safe, nurturing environment free from abuse and neglect. But sadly, we know that this is not always the case. Child abuse and neglect have devastating and long lasting consequences for individuals, families and communities. For children who survived abuse, the scars often linger, impacting their physical and mental health, development, and well being throughout their life. In fiscal year twenty twenty four, nearly twenty five hundred cases of suspected child abuse and neglect were reported in Prince William County. Prince William County is committed to supporting families through programs that prevent child abuse and neglect, including partnerships between families and child welfare professionals, community organizations, and law enforcement agencies.
Therefore, the Prince William Board of County Supervisors hereby proclaims April twenty twenty five is Child Abuse Prevention Month. Do you have any words for us?
Thank you. Good afternoon, Madam Chair and members of the board. Phyllis Jenny's hold, Director of Social Services.
