Our Kids

04/10/2026

Governor Lee has proclaimed April 2026 as Child Abuse Prevention Month in Tennessee. Every child deserves to grow up in a safe, nurturing environment. Together, we can create healthier families and communities by recognizing the signs of abuse, supporting prevention programs, and standing up for the children in our lives.

If you suspect abuse, call 877-237-0004 or visit TN.gov/DCS.
