Child Abuse Prevention Council
 

Dear Community Members:

Welcome to the Prevent Child Abuse - Johnson County web site. We hope you will find the information you are searching for. We encourage you to find a way to become involved in our efforts to prevent child abuse and neglect in Johnson County.

Prevent Child Abuse - Johnson County (PCA-JC) is organized with a Community Council as well as a Board of Directors. The Community Council has a broad membership of individuals and representatives from organizations that support the mission of PCA-JC. The Board of Directors are elected by the council to provide direction and governance to the council.

We have seen the positive impact of PCA-JC in terms of a support group for families that include a young child with a disability and a public awareness campaign to prevent child abuse. Please consider how you can become involved in this very worthwhile project and contact us at 338-7684 or e-mail at PreventChildAbuse@pcajc.org

We would like to thank Iowa State Bank & Trust for providing the start-up funding for this website.

Sheba Francis
Council President
