Child Abuse Prevention

WHAT:           

Six local social service agencies are hosting a collaborative event aimed at increasing awareness of child maltreatment during Child Abuse Prevention Month on April 4. For the Sake of the Children is a joint effort of ACH Child and Family Services, Alliance For Children, CASA of Tarrant County, Gladney Center for Adoption, Lena Pope and The Parenting Center. A panel discussion featuring the chief executive from each organization will explore how each agency and the community can work together to prevent child abuse. It will be followed by a networking hour. The event is an informative kickoff to Child Abuse Prevention Month, offering ways for the community to get involved.

If you are thinking about becoming a foster family or adopting a child from the Texas State Foster System, you will need to attend an information meeting in your area where you can discuss the scope and requirements of being a foster or adoptive parent.

Today the Gladney Team had the privilege to watch the beautiful adoption story of Frank and Stacy. We asked our Gladney Family to share their photos from the moment they first met their child #GladneyInstaLove.

Watch Hoda Kotb tell them they are matched with a baby girl. (Warning: tissues are needed.)

Whether it's selling t-shirts, having garage sales, or doing crowdfunding, there are many ways and opportunities to raise money for an upcoming adoption (domestic or international). Mike and Astra tried all of these ideas and more!
