A study commissioned by Prevent Child Abuse America shows that only 27% of Americans report that they are engaged in prevention. However, that same study showed that
80% of Americans reported
donating goods, money or time to an organization supporting children and families,
70% reported
volunteering with children through places of worship, schools, and sports or academic clubs, and
56% provided
mentorship to a child in their family, neighborhood, or community.
"These numbers show that many people are already involved in activities that prevent child abuse and neglect, they just don't realize it," said Dan Duffy, President and CEO of Prevent Child Abuse America.
