Preventing Child Abuse Is Everyone’s Responsibility
It is every adult’s moral responsibility to protect possible victims by reporting the suspected abuse or neglect to the responsible authorities. Sexual abuse of minors is a pervasive societal problem, and only concerted and sustained efforts by all adults in every segment of society can help to protect children and youth.

To report suspected or actual child abuse, call 911 for a Law Enforcement official, or contact the Florida Abuse Registry Hotline (Department of Children and Families) at (800) 962-2873.

For particular help you may call: Michael Craig, Safe Environment Program Manager at (727) 344-1611, ext. 5377.

Statement of Solidarity: A Catholic Response to COVID-19 Behind Bars
As Catholics, we are called to respect the dignity of all human life, regardless of the harm one has suffered or caused. That means we cannot simply stand by when experiencing #COVID19 in prison could mean a de facto death sentence. Take action: catholicsmobilizing.org/COVID-19.
