CHILD ABUSE

Child abuse is a serious issue that occurs in our neighborhoods, often within familiar families. It can be visible, like bruises, or hidden, like neglect or emotional abuse, leaving children feeling confused and scared. The impact is profound, leading to anxiety, depression, and difficulties in forming relationships.

It’s essential to recognize the signs of abuse. Reporting suspected cases is about protecting children and giving them a chance at a better future. Support for families in crisis is crucial and should focus on providing resources, not judgment.

At the Asabe Shehu Yaradua Foundation, we are dedicated to child protection through community workshops, funding shelters, and offering counseling services. Together, we can reduce the effects of child abuse and build a community that listens and acts.
